Noninvasive recording of the His bundle electrogram in neonates. 1984

A W Nathan, and R S Bexton, and A M Levy, and N Parmar, and A J Camm

Twenty-seven normal, nonsedated neonates had high-resolution electrocardiography performed during the first four days of life. Using high amplification, analogue and digital filters, and signal averaging, easily defined His bundle deflections of 0.75-7.75 (mean 2.5) microV were detected in 25 (92.6%) of the 27 babies. The PH interval was 60-105 (mean 83) ms and the HV interval 10-25 (mean 17) ms. Surface His bundle electrocardiography is easily performed in the neonate and, as might be predicted, conduction intervals are considerably shorter than those seen in older age groups.

D002036 Bundle of His Small band of specialized CARDIAC MUSCLE fibers that originates in the ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE and extends into the membranous part of the interventricular septum. The bundle of His, consisting of the left and the right bundle branches, conducts the electrical impulses to the HEART VENTRICLES in generation of MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
