Key result
The author refutes the modulated pacemaker hypothesis and supports the traditional conduction hypothesis for atrioventricular node function based on electrophysiological and theoretical evidence.
This review supports the classical conduction hypothesis of the atrioventricular node over the modulated pacemaker hypothesis by analyzing experimental and comparative electrocardiographic data.
Supports traditional AV nodal conduction hypothesis in ECG interpretation; leaves open prospective validation versus modulated pacemaker model.

Yoshio Watanabe (1998) conducted a review in Atrioventricular node electrophysiology. Conduction hypothesis vs. Modulated pacemaker hypothesis was evaluated. The author refutes the modulated pacemaker hypothesis and supports the traditional conduction hypothesis for atrioventricular node function based on electrophysiological and theoretical evidence.
