A junctional rhythm occurs when the electrical activation of the heart originates near or within the atrioventricular node, rather than from the sinoatrial node. Because the normal ventricular ...

Upgrading to a biventricular device may be considered for patients with heart failure and an RV pacing system who have undergone AV node ablation. In concordance with guidelines, our practice ...

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 ...

Junctional bradycardia occurs when the electrical impulse to start the heartbeat begins in the atrioventricular (AV) node rather than in the SA node. The AV node is a structure at the bottom of ...

Atrioventricular junction ablation with permanent pacemaker ... be beneficial in selected populations after atrioventricular node ablation. The limitations of this approach include continued ...
