We describe two patients who presented with a history of recurrent palpitations on swallowing of solid food. The event-recorder and Holter monitoring documented episodic supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) initiated by atrial premature contractions (APCs). During electrophysiological study (EPS), swallowing of solid food consistently induced APCs and their activation sequence, morphology of P wave were suggestive of their right atrial origin in them. Drug challenge did not affect the APC onset during the swallowing. During EPS, slow-fast variety of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) was induced and successful radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation of slow pathway resulted in total relief of their symptoms. 相似文献

The determinants of slow pathway conduction in patients with AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) are still unknown, and great differences in the AH interval during slow pathway conduction are observed between patients. In 35 patients with typical AVNRT who underwent successful slow pathway ablation (defined as complete elimination of dual pathway physiology), the A2H2 interval at the "jump" during programmed atrial stimulation and the AH interval during AVNRT (as a reflection of slow pathway conduction time) and the fluoroscopic distance between the successful ablation site and the His-bundle recording site and between the coronary sinus ostium (CSO) and the His-bundle recording site were determined. The mean (+/- SEM) AH interval during slow pathway conduction was 323 +/- 12 ms with programmed stimulation and 310 +/- 10 ms during AVNRT. The mean number of energy applications was 8 +/- 1 (range 1-21). The mean distances between (1) the successful ablation site and the His bundle recording site and (2) between the CSO and the His-bundle recording site were 24 +/- 1 and 28 +/- 1 mm in the RAO and 23 +/- 1 and 28 +/- 1 mm in the LAO projections, respectively. The AH interval during slow pathway conduction correlated significantly with the distance between the successful ablation site and the His-bundle (P < 0.001) but not with the distance between CSO and His-bundle recording site. There is a significant correlation between the AH interval during slow pathway conduction and the distance of the successful ablation site from the His bundle. This relationship (1) suggests that, in addition to functional factors, anatomic factors influence slow pathway conduction and (2) may be helpful in determining the initial energy application site during slow pathway ablation. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that in some patients affected by typical AVNRT, successful catheter ablation treatment may be achieved independently of specific measurable electrophysiological modifications of antegrade AV node conducting properties. Standard electrophysiological parameters and comparable antegrade AV node function curves were obtained, before and after successful ablation, in 104 patients (mean age 52 +/- 16 years; 69 women and 35 men) affected by the common form of AVNRT. The end point of the ablation procedure was noninducibility of AVNRT and of no more than one echo beat. For the purpose of this study, AV node duality was defined as an increase of > or = 50 ms in the A2H2 interval in response to a 10 ms decrease of the A1A2 coupling interval. Before ablation, AV node duality was present in 65 patients (62%) and absent in 39 patients (37%). Ablation caused measurable modifications of electrophysiological properties of the AV node in most patients with elicited AV node duality, but not in most patients without demonstrable AV node duality. After ablation, AV node duality persisted in 20 patients who had it before, whereas a new duality that could not be elicited before appeared in 5 patients. During 19 +/- 6 months of follow-up, clinical AVNRT recurred in 1 of 45 patients who had disappearance of AV node duality after ablation, in 1 of 34 patients who did not show AV node duality before and after ablation, and in 1 of 20 patients who had persistence of AV node duality after ablation. In conclusion, modifications of antegrade conduction properties of the AV node are not crucial for the cure of AVNRT in many patients. 相似文献

Background: Locating ablation targets on the slow pathway in children as one would in adults may not accommodate the dimensional changes of Koch's triangle that occur with heart growth. We investigated the most common site of success and the effect of a variety of variables on the outcome of slow pathway ablation in children. Methods: A total of 116 patients (ages 4–16 years) with structurally normal hearts underwent radiofrequency ablation of either the antegrade or the retrograde slow pathway. Ablation sites were divided into eight regions (A1, A2, M1, M2, P1, P2, CS1, and CS2) at the septal tricuspid annulus. Results: Ablation was successful in 112 (97%) children. The most common successful ablation sites were at the P1 region. The less the patient weighed, the more posteriorly the successful site was located (P = 0.023, OR 0.970, 95% CI 0.946–0.996), and the more likely the slow pathway was eliminated rather than modified: median weight was 46.7 kg (range, 14.5–94.3 kg) in the eliminated group and 56.5 kg (range, 20–82.6 kg) in the modified group (P = 0.021, OR 1.039, 95% CI 1.006–1.073). Conclusions: The most common site of success for slow pathway ablation in children is at the P1 region of the tricuspid annulus. The successful sites in lighter children are more posteriorly located. Weight is also a predictor of whether the slow pathway is eliminated or only modified. 相似文献

Background: There are little data on the appropriate endpoint for slow pathway ablation that balances acceptable procedural times, recurrence rates, and complication rates. This study compared recurrence rates of three commonly utilized endpoints of slow pathway ablation for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). Methods: We performed a meta‐analysis of AVNRT slow pathway ablation cohorts by searching electronic databases, the Internet, and conference proceedings. Inclusion criteria were age >18 years, >20 human subjects per study, primary AVNRT ablation, English language publication, and >1 month of follow‐up. Data were analyzed with a fixed‐effects model using Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis software version 2.2.046 (Biostat, Englewood, NJ, USA). Results: We included 10 studies encompassing 1,204 patients with a mean age of 41–53 years. Endpoints were complete slow pathway ablation, residual jump only, and single remaining echo beat. Pooled estimates revealed 28 of 641 patients (4.4%) with complete slow pathway ablation, 13 of 192 patients (6.8%) with a residual jump only, and 24 of 371 patients (6.5%) with one echo had recurrences. With uniform isoproterenol use after ablation, there was no significant difference in recurrence rates among the endpoints. However, when isoproterenol was utilized after ablation only if needed to induce AVNRT before ablation, a significantly higher recurrence rate occurred in patients with a residual jump (P = 0.002), a single echo (P = 0.003), or the combined group of a residual jump and/or one echo (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Isoproterenol should be used routinely after slow pathway modification, when a residual jump and/or single echo remain. (PACE 2011; 34:269–277) 相似文献

Nonreentrant atrioventricular (AV) nodal tachycardia is a rare form of arrhythmia due to simultaneous anterograde conduction in dual AV pathways, one atrial impulse triggering two ventricular complexes. We report the case of a 74-year-old man referred for incessant palpitations resistant to antiarrhythmic medication, and effort dyspnea. A nonreentrant AV nodal tachycardia is diagnosed with electrophysiological study. A dilated cardiomyopathy with left ventricular dysfunction is found with gated blood pool single-photon emission computed tomography. A radiofrequency catheter ablation of the slow pathway is successfully performed. The patient is reassessed 11 months after ablation. He is asymptomatic and left ventricular function has fully recovered. 相似文献

The reproducible induction of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) during electrophysiological study is critical for the diagnosis of atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT), and for determining a therapeutic endpoint for catheter ablation. In the sedated state, there are patients with reentry SVT due to AVNRT who are not inducible at electrophysiological study. This article reports on the empiric slow pathway modification for AVNRT in six pediatric patients (age 6-17, mean 13.3 years) with documented, recurrent, paroxysmal SVT in the setting of a structurally normal heart who were not inducible at electrophysiological study. Atrial and ventricular burst and extrastimulus pacing at multiple drive cycle lengths were performed in the baseline state, during an isuprel infusion, and during isuprel elimination. Single AV nodal (AVN) echo beats were present in all patients, while classic dual AVN physiology was present in three of six patients. Radiofrequency energy was administered in the right posteroseptal AV groove resulting in accelerated junctional rhythm in five of six patients. Postablation testing demonstrated the elimination of echo beats in four patients, while dual AVN physiology and echo beats persisted in two patients. At follow-up (22-49 months, mean 29.5 months), all patients are asymptomatic without recurrence of SVT and are not taking any antiarrhythmic medication. In selected patients, empiric slow pathway modification may be offered as a potential cure in children with recurrent paroxysmal SVT who are not inducible at electrophysiological study. Elimination of slow pathway conduction may serve as a surrogate endpoint, though is not necessary for long-term success. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) can usually be induced by atrial stimulation. However, it seldom may be induced with only ventricular stimulation, especially the fast-slow form of AVNRT. The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the specific electrophysiological characteristics in patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT that could be induced with only ventricular stimulation. METHODS: The total population consisted of 1,497 patients associated with AVNRT, and 106 (8.4%) of them had the fast-slow form of AVNRT and 1,373 (91.7%) the slow-fast form of AVNRT. In patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT, the AVNRT could be induced with only ventricular stimulation in 16 patients, Group 1; with only atrial stimulation or both atrial and ventricular stimulation in 90 patients, Group 2; and with only atrial stimulation in 13 patients, Group 3. We also divided these patients with slow-fast form AVNRT (n = 1,373) into two groups: those that could be induced only by ventricular stimulation (Group 4; n = 45, 3%) and those that could be induced by atrial stimulation only or by both atrial and ventricular stimulation (n = 1.328, 97%). RESULTS: Patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT that could be induced with only ventricular stimulation had a lower incidence of an antegrade dual AVN physiology (0% vs 71.1% and 92%, P < 0.001), a lower incidence of multiple form AVNRT (31% vs 69% and 85%, P = 0.009), and a more significant retrograde functional refractory period (FRP) difference (99 +/- 102 vs 30 +/- 57 ms, P < 0.001) than those that could be induced with only atrial stimulation or both atrial and ventricular stimulation. The occurrence of tachycardia stimulated with only ventricular stimulation was more frequently demonstrated in patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT than in those with the slow-fast form of AVNRT (15% vs 3%, P < 0.001). Patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT that could be induced with only ventricular stimulation had a higher incidence of retrograde dual AVN physiology (75% vs 4%, P < 0.001), a longer pacing cycle length of retrograde 1:1 fast and slow pathway conduction (475 +/- 63 ms vs 366 +/- 64 ms, P < 0.001; 449 +/- 138 ms vs 370 +/- 85 ms, P = 0.009), a longer retrograde effective refractory period of the fast pathway (360 +/- 124 ms vs 285 +/- 62 ms, P = 0.003), and a longer retrograde FRP of the fast and slow pathway (428 +/- 85 ms vs 362 +/- 47 ms, P < 0.001 and 522 +/- 106 vs 456 +/- 97 ms, P = 0.026) than those with the slow-fast form of AVNRT that could be induced with only ventricular stimulation. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that patients with the fast-slow form of AVNRT that could be induced with only ventricular stimulation had a different incidence of the antegrade and retrograde dual AVN physiology and the specific electrophysiological characteristics. The mechanism of the AVNRT stimulated only with ventricular stimulation was supposed to be different in patients with the slow-fast and fast-slow forms of AVNRT. 相似文献

A 29-year-old woman was referred for electrophysiological testing and radiofrequency ablation because of repeated episodes of palpitation of a 8-year duration. The 12-lead ECG during palpitations showed narrow QRS tachycardia at a rate of 160 beats/min. Dual AVN physiology according to electrophysiological criteria was not shown by single atrial extrastimulation and the tachycardia could not be induced. Slow/fast atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) was induced once by double atrial extrastimuli, but it was not reproducible. However, intravenous bolus injection of adenosine triphosphate (12.5 mg) during sinus rhythm led to reproducible initiation of slow/fast AVNRT. 相似文献

We describe a case of ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia in a patient with tricuspid atresia and L-malposition of great vessels using an electroanatomical mapping system integrated with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Atrial activation mapping during tachycardia identified the retrograde fast pathway proximal to the His bundle, observed in the left interatrial septum. Ablation was successfully completed below this area. Map integration with the patient's anatomy allowed a safe, individualized procedure. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Inferior venous access to the right heart is not possible in some patients due to congenital or acquired obstruction of the inferior vena cava (IVC). Although right-sided electrophysiology procedures have been performed successfully in patients with a previously placed IVC filter by direct placement of catheters through the filter, an alternative approach is necessary in some patients. METHODS: This case series describes three patients with an IVC filter who underwent successful ablation of the slow pathway for typical atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia using a superior vena cava (SVC) approach via the right internal jugular (IJ) vein. Two separate introducer sheaths were placed into the IJ vein using separate punctures. This permitted placement of a standard deflectable ablation catheter and an additional catheter in the right atrium to monitor for ventriculoatrial conduction during the junctional rhythm associated with ablation of the slow AV nodal pathway. RESULTS: Catheter ablation was successful in each patient. The number of radiofrequency current applications was 7, 17, and 27. There were no procedural complications and no patient had recurrent tachycardia during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Catheter ablation of the slow AV nodal pathway can be performed successfully and safely in patients with inferior venous barriers to the right heart using an SVC approach via the right IJ vein. 相似文献

Catheter ablation of the slow atrioventricular (AV) nodal pathway is the treatment of choice for dual AV nodal nonreentrant tachycardia. Rapid ventricular rates during incessant tachycardia may compromise catheter stability and increase the risk of AV block. Conduction via the slow AV nodal pathway may mimic junctional beats with retrograde block, which is an indicator to cease ablation. We report a case of incessant dual AV nodal nonreentrant tachycardia where intravenous isoproterenol was instrumental in facilitating catheter ablation by eliminating these two factors. 相似文献

We describe two consecutive adult males with incessant dual atrioventricular nodal nonreentrant tachycardia and associated severe cardiomyopathy. After invasive diagnosis, this is the first published report showing the successful outcome of this rare tachycardia with effective cryoablation. Cryothermal lesions in the roof of the proximal coronary sinus and right midseptal area lead to complete resolution of the tachycardia‐mediated cardiomyopathy in the mid‐term follow‐up of our patients. 相似文献

Catheter ablation has become a well-established, first-line therapy for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT), the most common reentry supraventricular tachycardia in humans. Robotic systems are becoming increasingly common in both complex and simple ablation procedures with presumed potential improvements in procedural efficacy and safety. The authors of this article conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the effectiveness and safety of the magnetic navigation system (MNS) in comparison with conventional catheter navigation for AVNRT ablation. An electronic search was performed using Cochrane Central database, Medline, Embase and Web of Knowledge between 2002 and 2012. References were searched manually. Outcomes of interest were: acute and long-term success, complications, total procedure, ablation and fluoroscopic times. Continuous variables were reported as standardized difference in means (SDM); odds ratios (OR) were reported for dichotomous variables. Thirteen studies (seven of which were nonrandomized controlled, four were case series and two were randomized controlled studies) involving 679 adult patients were identified. Twelve studies were based on a single center and one study was multicentral. MNS was deployed in 339 patients. The follow-up period ranged between 75 and 180 days. Acute success and long-term freedom from arrhythmia were not significantly different between MNS and control groups (98 vs 98%, OR: 0.94 [95% CI: 0.21–4.1] and 97 vs 96%, OR: 1.18 [95% CI: 0.35–4.0], respectively). A shorter fluoroscopic time was achieved with MNS; however, this did not reach statistical significance (15 vs 19 min, SDM: -0.26 [95% CI: -0.64–0.12]). Longer total procedure but similar ablation times were noted with MNS (160 vs 148 min, SDM: 3.48 [95% CI: 0.75–6.21] and 4 vs 6 min, SDM: -0.83 [95% CI: -2.19–0.53], respectively). The overall complication rate was similar between both groups (2.7 vs 1.0%, OR: 1.28 [95% CI: 0.33–4.96]). Our data suggest that the usage of MNS results in similar rates of success and complications when compared with conventional manual catheter ablation for AVNRT. MNS had a trend for reduced fluoroscopic time. Longer total procedure time was observed with MNS while the actual ablation time remained similar. Prospective randomized trials will be needed to better evaluate the relative role of MNS for catheter ablation of AVNRT. 相似文献

Unusual manifestations of the mode of termination were observed in a patient with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). After administration of verapamil during AVNRT, isorhythmic atrioventricular dissociation occurred without termination of the tachycardia. The sinus rate was slightly faster than that of the AVNRT, leading to the P wave preceding the QRS complex with a normal PR interval (e.g., pseudotermination). This phenomenon emphasizes the importance of continuous monitoring during an attempt to terminate AVNRT. 相似文献
