The coexistence of clinical atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) and drug-induced type 1 Brugada pattern (DI-Type 1 BrP) has been previously reported. The present study was designed to determine the 12-lead ECG characteristics at baseline and during AVNRT and to identify a subset of 12-lead ECG variables of benefit associated with underlying Brugada syndrome (BrS)/DI-Type 1 BrP among patients with slow/fast AVNRT.
A total of 40 (11 numerical/29 categorical) 12-lead ECG parameters were analyzed and compared between patients with ( = 69) and without ( = 104) BrS/DI-Type1-BrP matched for age, female gender, body mass index, left ventricular ejection fraction and comorbid conditions. Five distinct types of ECG pattern (Type A/B/C/D/E) in V1-V2 leads during AVNRT were defined.
A total of nine electrocardiographic variables, four at baseline, and five during AVNRT were identified. At baseline, patients with BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP had higher prevalence of interatrial block, leftward shift of frontal plane QRS axis, the absence of normal QRS pattern (the presence of rSr' pattern or type 2/3 Brugada pattern) in V1-V2 and QRS fragmentation in inferior leads compared to patients without BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP. During AVNRT, patients with BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP had higher prevalence of Type A ECG pattern ("coved-type" ST-segment elevation) in V1-V2, Type C ECG pattern (pseudo-r' deflection in V and "RBBB-like" pattern in V), pseudo-r' deflection in V, QRS fragmentation in inferior leads and "isolated" QRS fragmentation/notching/slurring in aVL compared to patients without BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP.
We identify several electrocardiographic variables that point to an underlying type 1 BrP among patients with slow/fast AVNRT.
临床房室结折返性心动过速(AVNRT)与药物诱导的1型Brugada波型(DI-Type 1 BrP)并存的情况此前已有报道。本研究旨在确定基线及AVNRT发作期间的12导联心电图特征,并在缓慢/快速AVNRT患者中识别出与潜在Brugada综合征(BrS)/DI-Type 1 BrP相关的有益的12导联心电图变量子集。
对年龄、女性性别、体重指数、左心室射血分数和合并症相匹配的有(n = 69)和无(n = 104)BrS/DI-Type1-BrP的患者进行了总共40项(11项数值型/29项分类型)12导联心电图参数的分析和比较。定义了AVNRT发作期间V1-V2导联中五种不同类型的心电图模式(A/B/C/D/E型)。
共识别出9个心电图变量,其中4个在基线时出现,5个在AVNRT发作期间出现。基线时与无BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP的患者相比,有BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP的患者房内阻滞患病率更高、额面QRS电轴左偏、V1-V2导联无正常QRS波型(存在rSr'波型或2/3型Brugada波型)以及下壁导联QRS波碎裂。在AVNRT发作期间,与无BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP的患者相比,有BrS/DI-Type 1 BrP的患者V1-V2导联A型心电图模式(“穹窿型”ST段抬高)、C型心电图模式(V1导联假性r'波和V2导联“类右束支传导阻滞”波型)、V1导联假性r'波、下壁导联QRS波碎裂以及aVL导联“孤立的”QRS波碎裂/切迹/顿挫的患病率更高。
我们识别出了几个心电图变量,这些变量表明缓慢/快速AVNRT患者存在潜在的1型BrP。
