    Notes: Objectives: To report our experience using low temperature and energy in the modification of the slow pathway in pediatric patients with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. Background: A concern in performing a slow pathway modification is the possible damage of the normal AV conduction system. Lesion size has been shown to have a linear relationship with temperature. Previous reports have used energy of 25–50 W that generate temperatures of 60C°–70°C for successful procedures. Methods: Report of results of attempted AV nodal slow pathway modification in 17 consecutive pediatric patients 〈 15 years of age at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia from April 1995 to November 1997 using low temperature and energy. Results: There were 18 successful slow pathway modifications with 1 recurrence in 17 patients. The maximum energy used during successful lesions was 32.7 ± 13.8 W (range 15–50 W) with a mean energy of 26.4 ± 13.3 W (range 12–48 W). The peak temperature during these lesions was 55.1°C ± 4.1°C (range 48°C–64°C) with a mean temperature of 47.9°C ± 2.7°C (range 44°C–54°C). The mean number of radiofrequency lesions required for a successful modification was 5.8 ± 6.7 (median 4.0, range 1–26). Patients have been followed for 2.08 ± 0.79 years. Conclusions: Slow pathway modification can be performed successfully with a low incidence of recurrence in the pediatric patient using low energy and temperature. It is possible that this may lead to smaller lesions.

    Notes: Three selfing and 13 crossing experiments between tetraploid individuals of Achillea ceretanica, Achillea collina, Achillea distans ssp.‘styriaca’ Saukel (ined.), and Achillea pratensis (Achillea millefolium complex, Compositae), five F1 crosses, three backcrosses and one further selfing experiment were carried out in order to study the inheritance of longipinenone (1) and its hydroxyl derivative (2). From these crossings, 1294 plants were studied by qualitative thin layer chromatography. Progenies from parent and F1 plants without longipinenones (0-type, ll) uniformly contained none of these two sesquiterpenes. All other crossing experiments showed typical segregation patterns of 0-type, L-type (longipinenone (1) without hydroxylongipinenone, L.hh) and H-type (hydroxy-longipinenone (2) and occasionally longipinenone, L.H.) in the ratio of 1 : 1 and 1 : 3. According to these results both derivatives are under dominant genetic control regulated by genes L and H, whereby hydroxylation takes place after synthesis of longipinenone (1).

    Notes: This prospective study was undertaken to examine the safety and to review the historical antecedents of an alternative method of paediatric anaesthetic induction other than halothane by mask. Two-thousand and five ASA I, II and III patients, 1 month-16 years of age initially received 70% N2O in O2 via a flavour-scented mask for 1–3 min, until adequate sedation was achieved. Venous cannulation was then undertaken, followed by an intravenous induction with thiopentone, and either atracurium or suxamethonium. The anaesthetist noted the occurrence of specific critical incidents during induction: excitement, coughing, vomiting, airway obstruction, laryngospasm, bradycardia for age, hypotension and/or hypoxaemia. The frequencies of all eight specific critical incidents on induction were extremely low in all ages. The studied alternative method of paediatric anaesthetic induction may be safer and more applicable in diverse clinical settings than a conventional halothane mask induction.

    Notes: Successful crossing experiments between tetraploid individuals of Achillea ceretanica, A. collina, A. distans ssp. styriaca, and A. pratensis (A. millefolium complex, Compositae) were carried out. Sesquiterpenes of 1013 hybrid plants obtained from 13 crossings were studied by qualitative thin layer chromatography (TLC). F1-progenies from parent plants with guaianolides (GU-type), as well as the offspring of a back-cross, uniformly contained proazulenes. Diallel crosses between plants exclusively with eudesmanolides (EU-type) resulted in a 7:1 segregation-ratio of EU- and GU-plants. Two reciprocal crossing experiments between EU- and GU-parents resulted in 28.6% and 89.3% EU-individuals, as well as GU-offspring. According to these findings, the qualitative marker ‘proazulene’ (GU-type) is thought to be a recessive character of the tetraploid Achillea species studied.

    Notes: QT and JT Dispersion in Long QT Syndrome. Introduction: Abnormalities of ventricular repolarization leading to ventricular arrhythmias place children with long QT syndrome at high risk for sudden death. Dispersion of the QT (QTd) and JT (JTd) intervals, as markers of cardiac electrical heterogeneity, may be helpful in evaluating children with long QT syndrome and identifying a subset of patients at high risk for development of critical ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia, torsades de pointes, and/or cardiac arrest).Methods and Results: The QTd and JTd intervals in 39 children with long QT syndrome were compared to those of 50 normal age-matched children. In the long QT syndrome group, QTd measured 81 ± 70 msec compared to 28 ± 14 msec in the control group (P 〈 0.05), and JTd in the long QT syndrome group was 80 ± 69 msec compared to 25 ± 15 msec in the control group (P 〈 0.05).Conclusion: Children with long QT syndrome have an increased QTd and JTd when compared to normal controls. A QTd or JTd ≥ 55 msec correlates with the presence of critical ventricular arrhythmias. These ECG measures of dispersion can be useful in stratifying children with the long QT syndrome who are at higher risk for developing critical ventricular arrhythmias.

    Notes: Multisite Ventricular Pacing in Heart Failure. Introduction: We studied the effects on cardiac function of pacing two right and two left ventricular sites in normal and failing hearts with a normal QRS duration. Methods and Results: Hemodynamic parameters were studied in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs with normal hearts and dogs with heart failure induced by rapid ventricular pacing. Unipolar intramyocardial electrodes were placed at the high right atrium and the apex (A) and base (B) of the left (L) and right (R) ventricles (V). Data were collected after pacing for 5 to 20 minutes. In normal dogs, without bundle branch block (BBB), pacing at either the apex or the base of the left ventricle increased cardiac output by approximately 10% compared with right ventricular apex (RVA) pacing with an AV delay of 10 msec. Positive dP/dt increased approximately 10% during four-site left and right ventricular apex and base (LRVAB) pacing compared with RVA pacing. In dogs with heart failure but without BBB, cardiac output increased by 8.5% (P 〈 0.01) during four-site ventricular pacing with AV delays of 0 and 60 msec compared with RVA pacing. Positive dp/dt increased by 23.5% (P 〈 0.001) with an AV delay of 0 msec and 9.6% (P 〈 0.001) with an AV delay of 60 msec during LRVAB pacing compared with RVA pacing. His-bundle pacing was associated with increased cardiac output compared with RVA pacing. Conclusions: We conclude that pacing simultaneously at two right and two left ventricular sites significantly improves cardiac function compared with single RVA pacing, with or without sequential AV synchrony, in dogs with rapid ventricular pacing-induced heart failure and no BBB.

    Notes: This study was designed to evaluate several alternative ECG measurements and provocative tests in order to identify markers for children with suspect congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS).〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉BackgroundA single QTc measurement on a resting ECG does not identify all children with LQTS. Alternative ECG measurements have been established for identification of LQTS patients, with varied degrees of accuracy. Additionally, findings of QT prolongation during exercise or catecholaminergic stimulation have been suggested as indicators for the presence of LQTS and associated arrhythmias.〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉MethodsThe ECGs from 40 children with suspect congenital LQTS were compared with 1000 gender and age matched control patients. Complete exercise ECG studies were performed on 32 of the 40 suspect LQTS patients and compared with 29 controls. ECGs recorded during isoproterenol infusion were obtained in 9 suspect LQTS patients and compared with 44 matched control subjects.〈section xml:id="abs1-4"〉〈title type="main"〉ResultsDuring exercise, the QTc was mildly prolonged in both groups, without a similar increase in JTc, suggesting prolongation of depolarization time. QT and JT dispersion shortened with exercise in control subjects, but not in the suspect LQTS patients. During isoproterenol infusion, the QTc and JTc are prolonged in the suspect LQTS group, without an increase in the control patients.〈section xml:id="abs1-5"〉〈title type="main"〉ConclusionsWe describe the ECG findings with provocative testing in patients in whom there is a clinical suspicion of LQTS, yet have a normal or borderline QTc. Exercise or isoproterenol may aid in identification of patients with congenital long QT syndrome.
