Sudden QRS morphology change during ventricular pacing in a scar-related isthmus What is the mechanism?

Abstract:

:We present an example of sudden modification in QRS morphology during ventricular pacing inside a scar-related isthmus. This is explained by a "concealed" sudden block in both the orthodromic and antidromic wavefront directions, allowing then the activation to proceed through a now overt antidromic conduction.

  • Junctional ectopic tachycardia in late period after early postoperative complete atrioventricular block: Messenger of return to normal sinus rhythm? : Explanation with four case series.

    abstract::Junctional ectopic tachycardia(JET) is a rare childhood arrhythmia originating from the area adjacent to the atrioventricular(AV) node. It often occurs after surgical procedures like repair of Tetralogy of Fallot, atrioventricular septal defect and ventricular septal defect, which are all performed in that area. While...
