الوصف: Background— The aim of this study was to test the electrophysiological effects of continuous enhanced vagal tone on dual atrioventricular (AV) nodal and accessory pathways. Methods and Results— This study included 10 patients with typical, slow-fast AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) and 10 patients with AV reciprocating tachycardia. Electrophysiological data were measured before and during continuous vagal enhancement by using phenylephrine infusion (0.6 to 1.5 μg/kg per min). For patients with AVNRT, during phenylephrine infusion, 1:1 conduction times over the anterograde fast and slow and retrograde fast pathways were prolonged (453±64 to 662±120 ms, P P P P P Conclusions— Enhanced vagal tone produces disparate effects on the refractoriness of the slow and fast AV nodal conduction pathways, with the anterograde fast pathway being the most sensitive. These changes are conducive to induction of AVNRT with a premature atrial complex and may explain in part the relatively common occurrence of AVNRT during sleep or other periods of presumed increased parasympathetic tone.
