Segmental conduction block in a low-voltage area suppressed macro-reentrant ventricular tachycardia after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. (66/265)

Macro-reentrant ventricular tachycardia (VT) developed in a 20-year-old man, 17 years after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot. Activation mapping of the VT revealed its counterclockwise propagation around the right ventricle, and through a critical pathway between a transannular patch and the tricuspid annulus. This critical pathway was 6 cm long and contained myocardium with a normal amplitude, while the area of low voltage was limited adjacent to the transannular patch. A linear lesion was created by radiofrequency energy delivered only to the low voltage area. After ablation, the activation wavefront through the low voltage area was blocked, and VT became non-inducible.  (+info)

Simultaneous assessment of pharmacokinetics of pilsicainide transdermal patch and its electropharmacological effects on atria of chronic atrioventricular block dogs. (71/265)

Pharmacokinetics of pilsicainide transdermal patch and its electropharmacological effects were simultaneously assessed using chronic atrioventricular block dogs. After application of the patch (9.8 mg/kg), pilsicainide was continuously absorbed through the skin with a C(max) of 0.49 +/- 0.13 microg/ml, while its plasma concentration was kept above the clinically reported minimum effective plasma concentration for 2 - 8 h. Inter-atrial conduction time was significantly prolonged, whereas statistically significant prolongation was not detected in the atrial effective refractory period. Prolongation of the cycle length of atrial fibrillation and anti-fibrillatory action were confirmed. Thus, pilsicainide can be absorbed transdermally to exert long-lasting electropharmacological effects leading to anti-atrial fibrillatory action.  (+info)
