The authors searched for intra-sinusal echos during electrophysiological investigation of 53 patients (41 men, 12 women, average age: 61 +/- 12 years). Cycles of sinus echos were recorded in 8 patients (15 per cent). The period during which sinus echos could be recorded was 125 ms (average 40.6 +/- 34 ms). Indirect assessment of sinus node function in patients with sinus echos was normal (corrected sinus node recovery time, estimated atrio-sino atrial conduction times using Narula's technique). A valid and reproducible direct recording of the sinus node potential was only possible in one patient. In this case the echo cycles were provoked by stimulation periods of between 440 and 320 ms (echo zone of 120 ms). All the echos obtained were preceded by a sinus node potential with a different duration and morphology to that observed during basal sinus cycles (respective sino-atrial conduction times 105 and 115 ms). In this patient we were also able to induce sinus echos after a single extrastimulus during the spontaneous rhythm. the echo zone was 130 ms and with a shorter coupling interval (310 ms) two successive sinus echos were recorded. The demonstration of intrasinusal echos by direct recording of the sinus node potential supports the experimental data of Allessie and Bonke on isolated right atrial tissues of the rabbit. Improvements in the technique of endocavitary direct recording of the sinus node potential in man should complete this data by showing the possibility of sinoatrial tachycardias due to reentry.
