چکیده

We descrive a patient who presents palpitations during cardiac rehabilitation after mitral valvuloplasty. ECG showed regular narrow QRS tachycardia compatible with Atrioventricular Node Reentrant Tachycardia. After slow pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation, the patient completed the rehabilitation program remained tachycardia and palpitations-free.

Entrainment from the para-Hisian region for differentiating atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia from orthodromic atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia.

AIMS The difference between the stimulus-atrial and ventriculo-atrial intervals (SA-VA) and between the post-pacing interval and the tachycardia cycle length (PPI-TCL) during entrainment from the right ventricular apex distinguishes atrioventricular node reentrant (AVNRT) from orthodromic atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT). We hypothesized that these features still apply when entrain...

Catheter-induced 3:1 second degree atrioventricular nodal block during atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia.

Second-degree atrioventricular (AV) nodal block with 2:1 AV conduction during atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) has been previously described. We report a patient who developed AVNRT during which 3:1 intra-infra-Hisian block due to catheter manipulation was observed. This was followed by gradual, incremental recovery of AV conduction. AVNRT accounts for approximately 50% of c...

Incidence of Dual AV Node Physiology Following Termination of AV Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia by Adenosine-5'-Triphosphate: A Comparison with Drug Administration in Sinus Rhythm

Administration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in sinus rhythm identifies dual atrioventricular node physiology (DAVNP) in 75% of patients with inducible slow/fast AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). The incidence of DAVNP following termination of AVNRT with ATP is unknown. Incremental doses of ATP (10-60 mg) were administered, first in sinus rhythm and then during tachycardia induced at el...

Modification of atrioventricular node in a special condition treating paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia

Modification of atrioventricular node is a usual and necessary operation to cure atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). In this operation, atrioventricular block is the most severe complication and its prevention is of our great concern. This complication always occurs under some special circumstances with potential risk. So, it is very important to realize such conditions, as in...

Percutaneous catheter modification of the atrioventricular node. A potential cure for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia.

Our purpose was to describe a technique of atrioventricular (AV) node modification for patients with drug refractory AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). Nine patients (mean age, 45 +/- 20; range, 14-82) with recurrent drug refractory AVNRT (n = 8) or sudden cardiac death thought to be precipitated by AVNRT (n = 1) underwent a percutaneous catheter procedure to modify AV nodal function. The ...
