introduction: previous studies have indicated a relationship between mptp pore and av nodal rate-dependent properties. the aim of present study was to determine acute direct effects of cyclosporine on extracellular field potential of isolated rabbit av node during experimental atrial fibrillation. methods: in one group of male new zealand rabbits (1.5-2.5 kg) cumulative concentrations of cyclos...

introduction: electrophysiological studies have demonstrated a relationship between aging and atrioventricular (av) nodal conduction and refractoriness. the aim of the present study was to determine the effects of nodal aging on dynamic av nodal field potential recording during atrial fibrillation (af) in rabbit. methods: two groups of male new zealand rabbits (neonatal 2-week-olds and adult 12...

Twenty-three children underwent electrophysiological studies during routine postoperative catheterization two months to five years after complete correction of tetralogy of Fallot. The aim of the study was to investigate the whole conduction system, including sinus node function, suing His bundle recordings and atrial pacing. H-V intervals were normal at rest and with pacing in twenty-two patie...
