Fig. 2From: An electrographic AV optimization for the maximum integrative atrioventricular and ventricular resynchronization in CRTMeasurement of atrioventricular delay according to the optimal ventricular resynchronization. A representative electrocardiographic series shows the measurement of pacing atrioventricular delay for optimal ventricular resynchronization. Ap-Vs = 260 ms, pacing rate = 90 bpm. The numbers shown on the top of the electrocardiograms are the values (ms) of PAV. The narrowest QRS (128 ms) occurred at a PAV of 170 ms. Ap-Vs: the intrinsic atrioventricular conduction time at the time of atrial pacing. PAV: pacing AV delayBack to article page
