We report a case of long RP' tachycardia diagnosed as fast-slow atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with a bystander nodoventricular pathway (NVP). Differential responses to right ventricular extrastimuli from the base and apex highlighted the anatomical proximity of the NVP attachment, contributing to the diagnosis.

Background: Electrophysiological characterization of ventricular tachycardia (VT) isthmus sites is complex and time-consuming. We aimed at developing and validating a global mapping strategy during programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) to reveal the underlying electrophysiological properties of the infarct-related substrate and to enable identification of highly heterogeneous activation sites associated with protected VT isthmus sites.

Methods And Results: Experimental study that included 22 pigs with established myocardial infarction undergoing in vivo characterization of the anatomical and functional myocardial substrate associated with potential arrhythmogenicity.

Background: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is associated with progressive conduction disease. Furthermore, DM1 patients are at risk ventricular arrhythmias (VAs), although prediction remains difficult. The 2022 Heart Rhythm Expert Consensus Statement gives a IIb recommendation to the use of electrophysiology study (EPS) to risk-stratify patients for VAs.

Prognostic value of non-invasive programmed ventricular stimulation after VT ablation to predict VT recurrences.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of non-invasive programmed ventricular stimulation (NIPS) and programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) after ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation in predicting the likelihood of VT recurrence.
  • Out of 138 patients, a significant 75% were found to be non-inducible for VT, and the findings indicated that a normal NIPS significantly correlated with lower VT recurrence rates compared to inducible cases.
  • NIPS demonstrated better predictive values for assessing patient risk, particularly among individuals with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) greater than 35%, marking it as a valuable tool post-ablation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on the concealed nodoventricular/nodofascicular (NV/NF) pathway, which is a connection involved in a type of heart rhythm disorder known as atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT).
  • Researchers analyzed 101 patients who underwent catheter ablation for AVNRT, finding that 3% had this bystander NV/NF pathway associated with different types of AVNRT.
  • The study revealed a unique two-phase resetting response in AVNRT when using ventricular extra-stimuli (VES) and ventricular overdrive pacing (VOP), indicating different effects depending on the timing of these interventions.
