A Long RP' Interval Tachycardia: what is the mechanism?
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 34-year-old woman with a long history of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia underwent an electrophysiologic procedure. The baseline sinus cycle length, atrial-His (AH), and His-ventricular (HV) intervals were 720, 70, and 50 msec, respectively. A narrow-QRS complex tachycardia was induced by ventricular pacing at a cycle length of 380 msec (Fig. 1). The tachycardia cycle length was 400 msec, the AH interval was 140 msec, and the His-atrial (HA) interval was 250 msec. The response to a single ventricular extrastimulus delivered during tachycardia when the His bundle was refractory is shown in Figure 2. During tachycardia, the earliest atrial activation was recorded at the ostium of the coronary sinus. What is the mechanism of the tachycardia?

Long RP interval tachycardia. What is the mechanism?
A 41-year-old man with a history of tachycardia refractory to multiple antiarrhythmic drugs was sent to our institution. His 12-lead electrocardiogram demonstrated incessant narrow QRS complex tachycardia with negative P waves in the inferior leads and long RP interval. Occasionally, the tachycardia terminated after a P wave and then was restarted after a sinusal beat. An EP study was performed...

A 75-year-old man underwent an electrophysiologic procedure because of recurrent palpitations and documented tachycardia. At baseline, there was sinus rhythm with right bundle branch block. Programmed stimulation demonstrated anterograde dual AV nodal physiology. A regular, long RP tachycardia with a cycle length of 540 msec and inverted P waves in the inferior leads was induced by atrial overd...

V-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 ...
