Repetitive nonreentrant ventriculoatrial synchrony inducing atrial fibrillation in setting of dofetilide

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: Repetitive nonreentrant ventriculoatrial synchrony (RNRVAS) is a type of pacemaker-mediated arrhythmia in patients with dual chamber devices programmed in an atrial tracking mode (DDD or DDDR). It is important to recognize RNRVAS and pacemaker mediated tachycardia (PMT), as both of these ventriculoatrial (VA) synchrony arrhythmias may cause symptoms and induce further atrial tachyarrhythmias, thus highlighting the need for recognition and appropriate device programming to prevent their occurrence.
