Progressively decreasing ectopic to second sinus beat intervals in concealed trigeminy.
A case of classical concealed trigeminy is reported in which the concealed ventricular extrasystoles occur due to a progressive shortening of the intervals in between manifest extrasystoles and their subsequent conducted second sinus beats. The specific mechanisms underlying such a remarkable phenomenon remain to be explained.
