Differential responses of the septal ventricle and the atrial signals during ongoing entrainment: a method to differentiate orthodromic reciprocating tachycardia using septal accessory pathways from atypical atrioventricular nodal reentry [PDF]
[EN]Differential diagnosis between tachycardia mediated by septal accessory pathways (AP) and atypical atrioventricular nodal reentry can be challenging. We hypothesized that an immediate versus delayed pace-related advancement of the atrial electrogram,

ICD discrimination of SVT versus VT with 1:1 V-A conduction: A review of the literature
Inappropriate ICD shocks are associated with increased mortality. They also impair patients' quality of life, increase hospitalizations, and raise health-care costs. Nearly 80% of inappropriate ICD shocks are caused by supraventricular tachycardia.

A shared pathway in atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and atrial flutter: Implications for pathophysiology and therapy [PDF]
Atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia and atrial flutter are considered 2 distinct supraventricular tachycardias. Recent clinical and experimental data suggest that both these tachycardias include an area in the lower right atrial septum in ...

Long-term outcomes after catheter-ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia: A ten-year follow-up [PDF]
Background/Aim. Atrioventricular nodal (AV) reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common form of supraventricular tachycardia. Treatment of choice is a catheter-ablation of the slow pathway of the AV node.

Electrophysiologic and antiarrhythmic effects of intravenous bisoprolol in atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia [PDF]
Beta-blockade may be useful in the termination and prevention of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT), An electrophysiologic study was performed in 9 patients (4 men and 5 women; mean +/- SD age, 56 +/- 16 years) with documented AVNRT ...

Oral flecainide is effective in management of refractory tachycardia in infants
Background: Propranolol and digoxin have been used as first line drugs for treatment of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in infants. Flecainide and other drugs have been effective as a second line treatment for controlling refractory SVT.

Cryosurgical ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentry: histologic localization of the proximal common pathway. [PDF]
A method using cryosurgery has been previously described to selectively ablate atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia while preserving intact atrioventricular conduction.

Challenges in diagnosis of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia: a bibliographic review [PDF]
A taquicardia por reentrada nodal (TRN) é caracterizada pela reentrada do impulso elétrico na área do nó atrioventricular (NAV). Geralmente, apresenta-se de forma benigna, sendo duas vezes mais frequente em mulheres do que em homens.
