Atrioventricular synchronization and accrochage.

H J MARRIOTT

چکیده

Complete heart block implies an absolute independence between atria and ventricles that does not in fact always exist. Segers showed that, after complete block was artificially produced in the frog's heart, atria and ventricles would sometimes begin to beat exactly in phase, most commonly in a 2 to 1 ratio. He subsequently reported one clinical example of 2 to 1 A-V synchronization in a patient with complete heart block. Two further cases that may illustrate different varieties of synchronization are here presented.

Atrioventricular dissociation with accrochage.

In atrioventricular dissociation the sinus and nodal pacemakers may interact with each other independently of the conducting tissues so that the slower pacemaker accelerates and passes into phase with the ventricular pacemaker, the resultant disturbance of rhythm being atrioventricular dissociation with accrochage, i.e. hooking together of P waves and QRS complexes by active physiological proce...

Retrograde conduction in complete heart block.

In complete heart block, absolute independence between atrial and ventricular activity does not always occur. Several mechanisms may be postulated to explain this phenomenon. One is incomplete atrio-ventricular block; another is atrio-ventricular synchronization and accrochage (Marriott, 1956; Schubart, Marriott, and Gorten, 1958; Ettinger, 1965). A third possibility rarely considered is unidir...

Neocortical synchronization.

Neuronal synchronization occurs when two or more neuronal events are coordinated across time. Local synchronization produces field potentials. Long-range synchronization between distant brain sites contributes to the electroencephalogram. Neuronal synchronization depends on synaptic (chemical/electrical), ephaptic, and extracellular interactions. For an expanded treatment of this topic see Jasp...

Histological study of the atrioventricular node and bundle in the heart of ovine fetus

This study was conducted on the atrioventricular node (AVN) and atrioventricular bundle (AVB) of fivefour-month-old ovine fetuses. The histological structure of these components was studied by routinehistological techniques and use of specific staining methods. The AVN was caudally located adjacent to theroot of the aorta. It was almost spherical in shape and consisted of twisty cells. The node...
