Figure 2 Four sample ECGs illustrating the 3-step approach to determining the location of an accessory pathway. ECG 1, Step 1: Either Q-waves or an isoelectric delta wave are absent in leads I, aVL, or V6. Step 2: Q-waves or an isoelectric delta wave are present in 2 of leads II, III, or aVF. Step 3: There is no Rs or RS in V 1,V 2,orV 3. The pathway is therefore located on the …

Electrical Conduction System of the Heart In a normal heart the pacemaker cells are the only cells initiating depolarization. Pacemaker cells can be found throughout the hearts electrical conduction system (See Figure 4). The Sinoatrial Node (SA Node) is a cluster of pacemaker cells located above the right atrium and is the main pacemaker of the

Siew Yen Ho, PhD, FRCPath, FESC. By definition, accessory atrioventricular pathways are aberrant muscle bundles that connect the atrium to a ventricle outside of the regular atrioventricular conduction system. Clinically, they may manifest as substrates for ventricular preexcitation. The first accessory pathway in a patient who suffered from ...

http://5y1.org/file/23109/tachycardia-fast-heart-rhythm.pdf
AV Re-entry Tachycardia (AVRT) and/or Wolff-Parkinson White Syndrome (WPW) In AVRT an extra electrical pathway exists that bypasses the normal conduction system. The pathway directly connects the atria (top chambers of the heart) to the ventricles (the bottom chambers of the heart). This extra pathway is known as an accessory pathway.

Moreover, because SAN reentrant tachycardia beats may exit through the same sinoatrial conduction pathway as during sinus rhythm, manySAN arrhythmias are underdiagnosed.

Normal conduction of the heart begins at the Sinoatrial (SA) node, then after travelling through the atria (upper chambers of the heart), travels through the Atrioventricular (AV) node to the ventricles (lower chambers of the heart). The type of SVT is classified based on the path of electrical signal during the tachycardia. SVT begins in the upper

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPW) is the combination of acces-sory pathway activation seen on an ECG (delta waves) and episodes of tachycardia. It was first described in 1930 by Louis Wolff, Sir John Parkin-son, and Paul Dudley White. Along with a delta wave, patients have a shorter time between the conduction of an impulse from the atrium ...

Very late accessory pathway conduction can recur after initially successful ablation. Heart failure can be a consequence of tachycardia or dyssynchrony from manifest preexcitation, but rarely—as this case demonstrates—may also be from atrial ectopy from concealed accessory pathway conduction. Definitive ablation is the recommended treatment

This lengthening is likely due to retrograde concealment into the FP from the“junc-tional beat.” The possibility of conduction via an interme-diate pathway cannot be excluded. This second sinus P

Dual AV nodal physiology indicates the presence of 2 distinct electrophysiologic pathways with different conduc-tion velocities and refractory periods. The shorter PR interval represents conduction over the fast pathway and the longer PR interval represents conduction over the slow pathway. The shift in conduction from fast to slow pathway can ...

the electrical system of my heart? The normal electrical conduction system consists of a “pathway” of conduction responsible for all normal beats. However, sometimes this pathway can be bypassed due to extra electrical connections, or “pathways”, or extra pathways combine with the normal pathway and result in a short-circuit.
