Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia diagnosed by pacemaker electrograms.

Electrograms stored by pacemakers or implantable defibrillators enable the diagnosis of numerous atrial or ventricular arrhythmia episodes. We present the case of a patient implanted with a DDD pacemaker for sinus node dysfunction who experienced episodes of tachycardia. Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia was diagnosed by real-time analysis of electrograms during and at the onset of the tachycardia episodes.
