What is the tachycardia mechanism?--II.

چکیده
Case Presentation A 34-year-old man with a 10-year history of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia underwent an electiophysiologic procedure. A narrowQRS complex tachycardia with a cycle length of 260 to 280 msec reproducibly was induced by right atrial overdrive pacing. At times there was a 1:1 relationship between the atrium and ventricle (Fig. 1), and at other times there was Mobitz I second-degree AV block during the tachycardia (Fig. 2). The atrial electrogram recorded by the His-bundle catheter preceded the high right atrial electrogram. At a time wben the tachycardia cycle length was 280 msec and tbere was a 1:1 AV relationship, ventricular overdrive pacing was performed at a cycle length of 270 msec (Fig. 3). What is tbe mechanism of tbis tachycardia?

AVNRT, (Atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia), atrial tachycardia and atrial flutter are 3 kinds of supraventricular tachycardia, which their mechanism are explained based on reentry. A 60-years-old man is presented with all of the above-mentioned arrhythmias, responsive to intravenous injection of adenosine. Radiofrequency ablation of the slow pathway territories cured all of them. There...
متن کاملV-A-A-V Activation Sequence at the Onset of a Long RP Tachycardia: What is the Mechanism?
A 52-year-old woman with a history of multiple episodes of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia underwent electrophysiologic studies and a catheter ablation procedure. The 12-lead electrocardiogram during tachycardia showed a long RP tachycardia with negative P waves in leads II, III, and aVF. At baseline, dual atrioventricular (AV) and ventriculoatrial (VA) nodal conduction was elicited by ...
متن کاملPacemaker syndrome during managed ventricular pacing mode: what is the mechanism?
A 51-year-old woman underwent implantation of a dual chamber pacemaker 10 years ago, for symptomatic intermittent second-degree type II AV block. She remained free of symptoms during follow-up. Recently, she underwent pacemaker replacement because of battery depletion (Adapta ADDR01, Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA). Given intact AV conduction at the time of intervention, the Managed Ventr...
متن کاملInteresting response of narrow QRS tachycardia to premature atrial complex. What is the mechanism?
Fig.1 shows a premature atrial complex (PAC) introduced during a narrow QRS tachycardia. What is the response and what is the interpretation? The tachycardia is a regular RBBB tachycardia with cycle length of 440 ms and ventriculo-atrial interval of 30 ms. There is near simultaneous activation of atrium and ventricle during tachycardia. Presence of His deflection prior to the QRS makes ventricu...
متن کاملA Narrow QRS Complex Tachycardia:
An 80-year-old man underwent an electrophysiologic procedure because of recurrent episodes of supraventricular tachycardia. Episodes of nonsustained narrow QRS complex tachycardia occurred spontaneously after catheter placement. Examples of the onset and termination of an episode of tachycardia are shown in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. What is the mechanism of the tachycardia? What is the lev...
