The significance of provocative tests in patients with bifascicular block is not established. We studied 14 patients with bifascicular block, syncope and documented episodes of high degree AV-block. 1.5 mg/kg Diprafenon was given after a period of at last 12 hours 1:1 AV-conduction. Electrophysiologic evaluation was performed before and after diprafenon. AV-block III could be provoked in 1 of 14 patients with Diprafenon. Therefore a total AV block occurred in 7% of patients. The low sensitivity of provocative test with Diprafenon even in patients with documented high degree AV-block prevents its application in clinical practice.
