Transverse conduction capabilities of the crista terminalis in patients with atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation
Open accessAbstract
Objectives In this study, the transverse conduction capabilities of the crista terminalis (CT) were determined during pacing in sinus rhythm in patients with atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation.Background It has been demonstrated that the CT is a barrier to transverse conduction during typical atrial flutter. Mapping studies in animal models provide evidence that this is functional. The influence of transverse conduction capabilities of the CT on the development of atrial flutter remains unclear.Methods The CT was identified by intracardiac echocardiography. The atrial activation at the CT was determined during programmed stimulation with one extrastimulus at five pacing sites anteriorly to the CT in 10 patients with atrial flutter and 10 patients with atrial fibrillation before and after intravenous administration of 2 mg/kg disopyramide. Subsequently, atrial arrhythmias were reinduced.Results At baseline, pacing with longer coupling intervals resulted in a transverse pulse propagation across the CT. During shorter coupling intervals, split electrograms and a marked alteration of the activation sequence of its second component were found, indicating a functional conduction block. In patients with atrial flutter, the longest coupling interval that resulted in a complete transverse conduction block at the CT was significantly longer than that in patients with atrial fibrillation (285 +/- 49 ms vs. 221 +/- 28 ms; p < 0.05). After disopyramide administration, a transverse conduction block occurred at longer coupling intervals as compared with baseline (287 +/- 68 ms vs. 250 +/- 52 ms; p < 0.05). Subsequently, a sustained atrial arrhythmia was inducible in 15 of 20 patients. This was atrial flutter in three patients with previously documented atrial fibrillation and in eight patients with history of atrial flutter. Mapping revealed a conduction block at the CT in all of these patients.Conclusions It was found that the CT provides transverse conduction capabilities and that the conduction block during atrial flutter is functional. Limited transverse conduction capabilities of the CT seem to contribute to the development of atrial flutter.

The diameter of the circuit necessary to sustain reentry depends on the area or line of block in the posterior RA, consistent with increased thickness and increased capacity to block transverse conduction at the crista terminalis.
“The diameter of the circuit, necessary to sustain reentry is dependent on the presence of the area or line of block in the posterior RA, which is in keeping with an increased thickness, 128,129 and the increased capacity to block transverse conduction at the crista terminalis.123,130”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
