The Precise Timing of Tachycardia Entrainment is Determined by the Post-Pacing Interval the Tachycardia Cycle Length and the Pacing Rate: Theoretical Insights and Practical Applications

摘要

BACKGROUNDPrevious observations have reported that the number of pacing stimuli required to entrain a tachycardia varies based on arrhythmia type and location, but a quantitative formulation of the number needed to entrain (NNE) that unifies these observations has not been characterized.
