AVRT characterized by paroxysmal occurrence that slow atrioventricular accessory pathway participatesin / 中国实用内科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the electrophysiologic characteristics of atrial-ventricular reentrant tachycardia(AVRT)characterized by paroxysmal occurrence that slow atrioventricular accessory pathway participatesin.Methods Twenty-one cases were chosen from patients receiring radiofrequency ablation therapy in Peking University People's Hospital from July in 1999 to January of 2005.The patients with slow atrioventricular accessory pathways diagnosed correctly were divided into two groups with paroxysmal tachycardia and permanent tachycardia in terms of the occurrent frequence of AVRT.The electrophysiologic features of AVRT of two groups were contrastively analyzed.Results Compared with the group of permanent AVRT,it was found that antidromic refractory period of slow atrioventricular accessory pathways was longer[(359?46)ms vs (318?31)ms,P
