Giant fetal magnetocardiogram P waves in congenital atrioventricular block: a marker of cardiovascular compensation?
The data imply that AV block in utero is accompanied by hypertrophy, which is more pronounced for the atria than the ventricles. We hypothesize that the hypertrophy results from a compensatory response associated with regulation of cardiac output and is likely to be observable in other arrhythmias and disease states. Magnetocardiography may be more sensitive than fetal echocardiography for detection of atrial hypertrophy in utero.
