Characteristics of slow pathway conduction after successful AVNRT ablation.

J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol

August 2006

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, London Health Sciences Centre, London, Ontario, Canada.

Background: AV node slow pathway conduction can persist following successful ablation for AV node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). We hypothesized that careful examination of AV nodal conduction curves before and after effective AVNRT ablation in patients with persistent slow pathway conduction could shed light on this apparent paradox.

Methods And Results: Thirty patients (age 40.

In 22 patients (age range 13-40 years) with Wolff-Parkinson-White ECG pattern without evidence of associated cardiomyopathy we measured the anterograde effective refractory period of the accessory pathway (ERP-AP) by extrastimulus method (at twice diastolic threshold) during atrial pacing (100/min). The ERP-AP range was 220-480 ms. There was a significant direct correlation between age and ERP-AP (r = 0.

The elaboration of habituation to repeated tactile stimuli was studied in snail (Helix pomatia) by means of intracellular recording of the neuronal activity and microionophoresis of acetylcholine (ACh). Light or a stronger tactile stimulation served as extrastimulus. The elaboration of habituation was accompanied by a rise in the threshold of action potentials (APs) generation, evoked by the habitual stimulus, and by a lowering of the threshold of APs elicited by the extrastimulus.
