Pacemaker pseudodysfunction with a coronary sinus pacemaker

American Heart Journal, 1974
Abstract A permanent transvenous coronary sinus pacemaker functioned effectively for 22 months both as an atrial and ventricular pacemaker. Slow atrial flutter resulted in failure of the pacemaker to capture the myocardium and thus incorrectly suggested pacemaker dysfunction.

Pacemakers

NEJM Evidence
AbstractPacemakers are critical in the management of bradyarrhythmias. The authors review pacemaker fundamentals, indications, and device types, as well as the role of pacemakers in heart failure, emerging advancements, and current limitations.

Pacemaker Therapy

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1985
This article reviews the indications for pacemaker implantation and the techniques and devices currently in use. The management of patients who require permanent pacemakers and the potential complications involved are discussed. The article concludes with a brief synopsis of temporary pacing.

Pacemakers

Current Problems in Surgery, 1997
Rapid advances in pacing technology will continue to affect the quality of life of many patients with cardiovascular disease. A truly "smart" device that seemed fanciful 30 years ago now seems to be a virtual certainty by early in the next century.

The Pacemaker Syndrome

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1985
The pacemaker syndrome is a complex of clinical signs and symptoms related to the adverse hemodynamic and electrophysiologic consequences of ventricular pacing in the absence of other causes. Neurologic symptoms or those suggesting low cardiac output or congestive heart failure, temporally related to the onset of ventricular pacing, are indicative of ...

A Confused Pacemaker

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2016
The electrocardiogram (ECG) raises the question of inappropriate device behavior and the possibility of ventricular lead oversensing causing failure of ventricular pacing. Careful analysis of the ECG proved that the mode of pacing was set to managed ventricular pacing (MVP) mode.

The evolution of pacemakers

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2006
A brief overview of the history and development of circuit designs applied in pacemakers has been presented. The advances in IC designs have resulted in increasingly sophisticated pacing circuitry, providing, for instance, diagnostic analysis, adaptive rate response, and programmability.

Pacemakers and defibrillators

2005
Abstract Cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are used to stimulate cardiac muscle directly. The pacemaker corrects for abnormalities in the heart rate (this can be fast or slow). Defibrillators are used to restore a fibrillating heart or tachycardia, to sinus rhythm.

Electronic Pacemakers

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2006
The number of patients who have cardiac pacemakers has increased markedly over the past few decades since the technology was first introduced in the 1950s. Advances in technology, expanding indications, and the aging of the population ensure that clinicians will encounter patients with cardiac pacemakers on a regular basis.
