First postpacing interval variability during right ventricular stimulation: a single algorithm for the differential diagnosis of regular tachycardias.

abstract：BACKGROUND:While previous clinical studies have shown a possible beneficial effect of the reperfusion performed at a relatively late phase of acute myocardial infarction ("late reperfusion") in preventing left ventricular enlargement, the mechanism has not been clarified. METHODS AND RESULTS:Of 89 patients with an ini...
