Published: August 2021

Parahisian pacing (PHP) is a useful maneuver during electrophysiology study of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) especially when the tachycardia is non-sustained. Various responses during PHP can differentiate between the routes of VA conduction (VAC). In a case of WPW syndrome with orthodromic re-entrant tachycardia, we encountered various responses which one must be cognizant about to avoid erroneous conclusions. Along with para-hisian capture and only ventricular capture, simultaneous atrial capture (SAC) and pure His capture were also noted. Moreover, during pure-His capture underlying distal antegrade right bundle branch block (RBBB) was encountered making it an intriguing case.

Causes of paradoxical response include Pure His capture and inadvertent intermittent direct atrial capture. In the index case , we postulate that the likely mechanism of paradoxical prolongation could be due to decrement in the AV node due to the shortening of HH interval which happened as a result of a narrower H + Vc beat .
