Descriptor síndrome de Lown-Ganong-Levine
Entry term(s) síndrome del complejo PR corto-QRS normal
Scope note: Forma de preexcitación ventricular caracterizada por un intervalo PR corto y un complejo QRS normal. En este síndrome el impulso auricular se conduce por las fibras de James que conectan la aurícula con el HAZ DE HIS evitando el NÓDULO AURICULOVENTRICULAR superior. Los VENTRÍCULOS CARDIACOS se despolarizan normalmente por medio del sistema de His-Purkinje.

Scope note: A form of ventricular pre-excitation characterized by a short PR interval and a normal QRS complex. In this syndrome, the atrial impulse conducts via the JAMES FIBERS which connect the atrium to BUNDLE OF HIS bypassing the upper ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE. HEART VENTRICLES are depolarized normally through the His-Purkinje system.
