RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Local theory and the vectorial theory are used to explain the origin of P-wave dispersion (PWD). There are no previous studies that analyze both at the same time. OBJECTIVES: We set out to determine the implication of local and vectorial theories in the origin of PWD. METHODS: Cross-sectional study in 153 randomly selected patients aged 18-70 years, undergoing electrophysiological study. Inhomogeneous atrial conduction was evaluated by atrial electrogram dispersion in terms of duration (EGMdurdis) and morphology (EGMmorph dis). P-distal coronary sinus interval (P-DCS) was also measured. P-wave was measured twice, firstly at a calibration of 20 mm/mV and a sweep speed of 50 mm/s, enhancement 10× (basic measurement [BM]), and second time at sweep speed of 150 mm/s, enhancement 80-160× (high precision measurement [HPM]). RESULTS: PWD with BM was 48 ms [36-54 ms] while with HPM it was 4 ms [0-10 ms], p < 0.001. With BM, maximum and minimum P- wave duration presented a moderate correlation (r = 0.342; p < 0.001), using HPM it becomes strong (r = 0.750; p < 0.001). In cases with P-DCS < 80 ms (r = 0.965; p < 0.001), but not with P-DCS ≥ 80 ms (r = 0.649; p < 0.001), the previous correlation became almost perfect with HPM. EGMdurdis and EGMmorphdis were weak but significantly correlated with PWD. This correlation became moderate in patients with P-DCS ≥ 80 ms and disappeared in those with P-DCS, using BM and HPM. CONCLUSION: Vectorial theory explains almost entirely the PWD phenomenon. Inhomogeneous conduction could be an additional mechanism to explain PWD, but its contribution is small.
