'''VA conduction''', also named '''Ventriculoatrial conduction''' and sometimes referred to as '''Retrograde conduction''', is the conduction backward phenomena in the heart, where the conduction comes from the ventricles or from the AV node into and through the atria.<ref name="urlRetrograde VA Conduction - Medical Dictionary Definition">{{cite web |url=http://www.medilexicon.com/medicaldictionary.php?t=19694 |title=Retrograde VA Conduction - Medical Dictionary Definition |format= }}</ref>

Retrograde VA conduction results in many different symptoms, primarily those symptoms result from the delayed, nonphysiologic timing of atrial contraction in relation to ventricular contraction.<ref name="urlPacemaker Syndrome: Overview - eMedicine Cardiology">{{cite web |url=http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/159706-overview |title=Pacemaker Syndrome: Overview - eMedicine Cardiology |date=9 May 2022 |format= }}</ref>
