Body surface potential mapping of a patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome with two accessory pathways and two atrial pacemaker complexes.

Abstract:

:As part of an ongoing research protocol, a patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome underwent body surface potential mapping and electrophysiologic studies before radiofrequency ablation therapy. Careful analysis of the body surface potential mapping data made it possible to distinguish four different map sequences representing four different cardiac complexes. Analysis of these maps is consistent with two accessory pathways, with the additional pathology of two distinct atrial pacemaker sites. A right anterosuperior pathway was found to conduct continuously. The second pathway is consistent with a right inferior pathway conducting intermittently. The analysis demonstrates the type of information that can be extracted from body surface potential maps, even in the presence of complex pathologies.
