The effect of procainamide on delayed activation potentials in a patient with ventricular tachycardia

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology : PACE
B Bailey, A Tan

Abstract

In a patient with ventricular tachycardia and previous myocardial infarction, delayed activation potentials were recorded from a region of the posterolateral wall of the left ventricle at electrophysiological study. Procainamide, administered intravenously, initially caused increased delay and later, in higher dosage, second-degree block of the delayed potentials.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
