Abstract:The aims of this study were to evaluate the changes in the electrophysiological characteristics of the right atrium after the administration of flecainide and to clarify whether flecainide has a selective effect on human atrial tissue. Electrophysiological measurements were made in 38 patients, before and after intravenous administration of flecainide (2 mg/kg per 10 min). The effective refractory period of the right atrium (ERP-A), maximum conduction delay (Max.CD), repetitive atrial firing zone (RAFZ), fragm… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
