A supraventricular re-entry tachycardia was successfully treated in a patient with WPW and sick-sinus syndrome by permanent rapid atrial pacing and ventricular demand pacing. The use of a demand pacemaker with bipolar electrode avoided slow ventricular rates resulting from second degree A-V block during rapid atrial pacing. The trigger system of this pacemaker was not disturbed by unipolar atrial stimulation. Ventricular rates responded satisfactorily to physical and to emotional stress as a result of improved A-V conduction in these circumstances. Rapid atrial pacing has prevented the re-entry tachycardia. In an emergency the atrial pacemaker can be inhibited by a magnet, but otherwise discharges permanently at a constant rapid rate.

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

D006327 Heart Block Impaired conduction of cardiac impulse that can occur anywhere along the conduction pathway, such as between the SINOATRIAL NODE and the right atrium (SA block) or between atria and ventricles (AV block). Heart blocks can be classified by the duration, frequency, or completeness of conduction block. Reversibility depends on the degree of structural or functional defects.

D006352 Heart Ventricles The lower right and left chambers of the heart.

D012849 Sinoatrial Node The small mass of modified cardiac muscle fibers located at the junction of the superior vena cava (VENA CAVA, SUPERIOR) and right atrium. Contraction impulses probably start in this node, spread over the atrium (HEART ATRIUM) and are then transmitted by the atrioventricular bundle (BUNDLE OF HIS) to the ventricle (HEART VENTRICLE).
