Atrial standstill 2

Synonyms
ATRIAL DILATION AND STANDSTILL; CARDIOMYOPATHY, ATRIAL DILATED, WITH ATRIAL STANDSTILL

Summary

Atrial standstill (AS) is a rare condition characterized by the absence of electrical and mechanical activity in the atria. On surface ECG, AS is distinguished by bradycardia, junctional (usually narrow complex) escape rhythm, and absence of the P wave. Nearly 50% of patients with AS experience syncope. AS can be persistent or transient, and diffuse or partial (summary by Fazelifar et al., 2005). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of atrial standstill, see ATRST1 (108770). [from OMIM]
