The atrioventricular node (AV Node) is a bundle of conduction cells that regulate the communication of atrial electrical activity with ventricular electrical activity. The AV node has a long ...
Third-degree atrioventricular nodal block, also known as third-degree heart block or complete heart block, occurs when no action potentials conduct through the AV node. This results in the P waves ...
The atrioventricular node (AVN) has mystified generations of investigators over the last century and continues today to be at the epicenter of debates among anatomists, experimentalists, and ...
Mobitz type I, also known as the Wenckebach block, is a subtype of second-degree atrioventricular (AV) block. Mobitz type I is a type of conduction disorder, which happens when the electrical signals ...
The introduction of dual-chamber pacing in current ICD has facilitated and improved the treatment of ICD recipients with concomitant standard dual-chamber pacemaker indication. Whether dual-chamber ...
Atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is an irregular heart rhythm that can cause excessively fast heart rates. Though not usually serious, early diagnosis can help prevent severe ...
