Atrioventricular separation

Atrioventricular separation is just that. In patients with atrioventricular separation, there are two excitement points. The excitatory point of the atrium controls the atrium, and the excitatory point of the ventricle controls the ventricle. Therefore, the atrial rate and the ventricular rate are often not consistent. The usual heart rate is the ventricular rate. Normal people are excited by the sinoatrial node, and the atrial is excited first, and then the ventricle is excited downward, so the atrioventricular rate is the same as the atrioventricular separation. Atrioventricular separation is common in third-degree atrioventricular block (block type atrioventricular separation), atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and disturbed atrioventricular separation.
