PE-482887-005 VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT CHARACTERISTICS INFLUENCE PRESENCE OF SEPTAL ANATOMICAL ISTHMUSES IN PATIENTS WITH REPAIRED TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

HeartRhythm

In repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF), the septal anatomical isthmuses (AI), 3, between the ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary annulus, and 4, between the VSD and tricuspid annulus, are important ventricular tachycardia (VT) substrates when slow conducting.

And that will be the approximate level of the tricuspid valve, the reference point for measuring right atrial pressure. In right atrial tracing, this occurs at the time of right ventricular contraction, with bulging upwards of the tricuspid valve. The Y descent is shallow in tricuspid stenosis, and absent in cardiac tamponade.
