Abstract:
Objective To investigate the impact and significance of the vagus nerve intervention on the atrial electrical emodeling.Methods 30 mongrel dogs were given metoprolol in order to eliminate the effects of sympathetic nerve on atrial electrical remodeling;observe the atrial effective refractory period (ERP) and atrial fibrillation susceptible window(VW) in the high right atrial(SA) and coronary sinus (CS) by the vagus nerve stimulation(VS) or vagus nerve stimulation(Non-VS) before and after using atropine and after atrial electrical remodeling was observed.Results Before using vagus nerve blocking agents atropine,ERP shortened significantly [(54.83 ± 46.23) ms] and VW increased significantly [(19.86±13.23) ms] after VS,this time with atrial fibrillation-prone ; After using atropine,ERP increased significantly [(112.33 ± 9.63) ms] under VS,did not induce atrial fibrillation; After atrial electrical remodeling,the value of ERP was no significant difference under basis and VS (t =2.116,0.853,all P ＞0.05).Conclusion VS can increase the atrial electrical remodeling,an increase of atrial fibrillation susceptibility;vagus nerve block can reduce atrial electrical remodeling and atrial fibrillation susceptibility decreased.
