Atrial fibrillation induced by atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia
The American Journal of Cardiology
|March 1, 1997
Abstract:
In 4 patients with recurrent episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation as the only documented arrhythmia, electrophysiologic study showed that atrial fibrillation originated after a very fast transition from atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. Recognition of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia as the triggering factor for atrial fibrillation has important therapeutic consequences.
