Abstract
The article discusses the case of a 76-year-old man who underwent implantation of a pacemaker for atrioventricular (AV) block. It relates that repetitive nonreentrant ventriculoatrial (VA) synchrony (RNRVAS) was due to the atrial fibrillation (AF) suppression function. It cites the increase in the VA conduction time, as well as the reasons behind the initiation of RNRVAS and conversion to pacemaker-mediated tachycardia.
