[Surface recording technique of His bundle potential in man]. 1980

R Fenici, and F Bellocci, and M Marchei, and L Gabrielli, and P Zecchi, and P Zeppilli

A method is presented for the non-invasive recording of His bundle electrical activity from the body surface in man. Several bipolar ECG leads were employed: precordial, Frank "x" and Frank "z". Signals were filtered (30-300 Hz), highly amplified (5 x 104) and averaged. Digital averaging was performed on line by a microcomputer (OTE Biomedica Neuroaverager mod. 1172). Surface investigation was performed in 10 patients affected by different conduction pathology simultaneously with HBE recordings for diagnostic purpose and in 5 normal volunteers only incruently. Highly repeatable electrical deflections (B waves) were recorded in the PR segment. In all patients a good correspondence between surface (B wave) and intracardiac (H wave) was found. Atrial pacing and pharmacological test were used in order to ascertain the real source of B wave.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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
