چکیده
IT HAS BEEN KNOWN for years that the more serious cardiac arrhythmias, atrial fibrillatiol, atrial flutter,1 and even ventrieular tachyeardia,2 can exist in persons withouLt demonstrable evidence of heart disease. One of the initial comprehensive reviews of this phenomen-on was that of Orgain, Wolff, aind White1 in 1936, who reported 47 individuals presentinig uncomplicated atrial fibrillation and 5 patients exhibitilng atrial flutter. The nmuch rarer phenomenon of familial cardiac arrhythmias, to our knowledge, has been documented in the literature on only 4 occasionis, and in each instanice the arrhythmia

Modulation of extracellular atrioventricular node field potential pattern and ventricular rhythm by morphine in experimental atrial fibrillation in isolated rabbit heart
Introduction: Endorphins are produced by cardiomyocytes, and exert different effects on the heart. The aim of the present study is to assess morphine effects on extracellular atrioventricular (AV) node field potential pattern and ventricular rhythm of isolated rabbit heart during experimental atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: Effects of different concentrations of morphine (10, 20, 50 and 1...
متن کاملDigitalis-induced double atrioventricular nodal rhythm associated with electrical alternans.
An instance of digitalis-induced double atrioventricular nodal rhythm associated with ventricular electrical alternans has been described . To the knowledge of the author, it is the first such combination reported. One atrioventricular nodal pacemaker (group A) produces non-paroxysmal atrioventricular nodal tachycardia and the other pacemaker (group B) produces atrioventricular escape rhythm wi...

terval and tend to convert it into an RP interval. Antegrade block (depression of the impulse conduction to the ventricle) will prolong PR interval and tend to convert an RP into a PR interval. They reported one case with antegrade block, the PR interval measuring 0.18 sec. Vakil3 reported two cases of atrioventricular nodal rhythm with antegrade block. One of them, an elderly, hypertensive pat...
متن کاملAtrioventricular dissociation between two atrioventricular nodal rhythms.
A case presenting with AV nodal escape rhythms after obvious sinus depression is described. The escape rhythms arise from two dissociated AV nodal pacemakers with differential physiological properties. Variation in the rate of the upper AV nodal pacemaker results in a form of escape-capture bigeminy. Temporary acceleration of the sinus rhythm results in dissociation between sinus and lower AV n...
متن کاملCongenitally corrected transposition of great vessels with infundibular pulmonary stenosis with ventricular septal defect, presenting with atypical atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia: a rare association
Congenitally corrected transposition of great vessels (CCTGV) is a rare congenital heart disease (CHD) accounting for <1% of CHDs. CCTGV with infundibular pulmonary stenosis (PS) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) is part of Fallot's physiology. It is known to be associated with bradyarrhythmias like atrioventricular (AV) blocks, and acquired complete AV block occurs at a rate of 2% per year....
