Catheter ablation was attempted in 2 patients with atrioventricular node reentry tachycardia which showed fast, intermediate and slow anterograde atrioventricular node pathways. Radiofrequency currents were applied within a restricted area of the tricuspid annulus between the His bundle and the ostium of the coronary sinus where presumed slow pathway ...

2:1 Atrioventricular Block During Atrioventricular Node Reentrant Tachycardia
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and to clarify the mechanism of 2:1 atrioventricular (AV) block during AV node reentrant tachycardia induced in the electrophysiology laboratory.In patients with 2:1 AV block during AV node reentrant tachycardia, the absence of a His bundle potential in the blocked beats has been considered ...

Automatic Mode Switching in Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Automatic mode switching (AMS) algorithms were designed to prevent tracking of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATA) or other rapidly occurring signals sensed by atrial channels, thereby reducing the adverse hemodynamic and symptomatic consequences of a rapid ...

Mesothelioma in the Atrioventricular Node. Case Report.
A patient with complete atrioventricular block and an implanted permanent pacemaker died of colon cancer at the age of 64 years. At autopsy, a cardiac tumor in the region of the atrioventricular node (mesothelioma of the atrioventricular node) was found. The origin of this type of tumor is controversial.

Complete atrioventricular block during neonatal intubation: a case report
Preterm infants often experience side effects from intubation. Desaturation and sinus bradycardia are frequent. Atropine as premedication mitigates these risks.We report the occurrence of severe bradycardia related to atrioventricular block during ...

Repeated misclassifications of tachycardia by an implantable cardiac defibrillator
This case describes repeated misclassifications of SVT due to AV node reentry as VT by an ICD. This case illustrates the limitations of SVT-VT discrimination algorithm.
