Values are means±SE. AERP, atrial effective refractory periods; AVERP, atrioventricular effective refractory periods; WCL, Wenkebach cycle length. SNRT, sinus nodal recovery time; cSNRT, corrected sinus nodal recovery time; SNRTi, sinus nodal recovery time index. Subscripts 200, 150, 125 and 100 refer to S1 drive cycle lengths of 200, 150,125 and 100 ms, respectively. NS: no statistical significance.
