ABSTRACT:
A method for locating the AV junction in the heart and injecting pharmacological or biological compounds into the AV junction for purposes of enhancing or retarding electrical conduction within the AV junction. The AV junction is identified using a combination of echocardiographs and intracardiac electrograms and, once, a catheter with an injection needle and infusion port is positioned into the AV junction for purposes of direct infusion of biologically active compounds to enhance or retard atrioventricular conduction of electrical impulses.
