Long rhythm strips were analyzed from five patients with frequent ventricular extrasystoles. The predominant pattern was quadrigeminal; i.e., three sinus beats between extrasystoles. However, about 20% of the interectopic intervals contained numbers of sinus beats (S) greater than three. Analysis of the distribution of such values of S > 3 revealed that there were many more odd than even values...

Although concealed conduction in the atrioventricular node (AVN) has been the focus of numerous experimental and clinical studies, little is known about the differential effects on AVN functional behavior of prior concealed retrograde impulse penetration alone vs prior anterograde or dual AVN activation. This study was undertaken specifically to investigate this aspect of human AVN physiology i...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine whether P wave signal-averaged electrocardiogram (P-SAECG), which detects subtle changes in P wave, detects the concealed accessory atrioventricular pathway (AP). BACKGROUND It is difficult to differentiate atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia (AVRT) due to the AP from atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) when the ventr...
