Radiofrequency (RF) ablation of slow pathway (SP) is usually performed in sinus rhythm while monitoring the occurrence a junctional (JR). JR although sensitive, not specific for elimination SP conduction. Our objective was to prospectively evaluate feasibility and safety using fast atrial rate pacing (FAP) during RF delivery.Consecutive patients admitted atrioventricular nodal re-rentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) were included. The proximal coronary (CS) set value constantly yielding antegrade...
