Hibernation of the Conduction System and Atrioventricular Block Reversibility Following Revascularization in Patients without Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Although myocardial infarction (MI) is a reversible cause of atrioventricular (AV) block, the association of ischemia other than MI with AV block is unclear. The purpose of this study is to investigate this relationship. Among patients nominated for pacemaker implantation due to AV block in two centers from 2017-2020, 120 patients with significant coronary artery disease (CAD) in angiography were included in the study.

The importance of sustained junctional tachycardia following cessation of radiofrequency current delivery in slow pathway ablation.

Background: Apart from junctional rhythms during slow pathway ablation, there is limited knowledge about the junctional tachycardia persisting following ablation cessation. This study is conducted to determine the characteristics and significance of this rare arrhythmia.

Methods And Results: This study was done on 487 patients with AVNRT undergoing the radiofrequency ablation.
