Description |
An astute cardiology fellow, yours truly, went to the patient's bedside on Day 2 and massaged the right carotid sinus as indicated by the arrow. Four beats later at a slightly slower heart rate the PR interval suddenly normalized suggesting an abrupt change from a slow AV nodal pathway to a fast AV nodal pathway, demonstrating the existance of dual AV pathways. |
