Comparison of automatically adjusted sensitivity after sensed ventricular events for three ICD manufacturers. Left panel shows markedly different performance after large (10 mV) R wave. Right ...

Disclosures Pacing Clin Electrophysiol. 2013;36 (8):923-925. ... Advantages of Dual-Coil Leads Leadless ECG provides a far-field view of cardiac activity without connecting external leads to the ...

The first-ever pacemaker to include Managed Ventricular Pacing (MVP®), the EnRhythm™ Pacing System promotes intrinsic conduction and is clinically proven to significantly reduce unnecessary ...

If the wire near the sinoatrial node doesn’t detect any electrical activity over a set time, the pacemaker’s battery will ...

The Accent MRI pacemaker, with the Tendril MRI lead, is an MRI conditional system, offering safe performance of a full-body MRI scan on the patient using a 1.5 T (Tesla) field-strength MRI scanner.

Ventricle pacemaker cells have a normal rate between 20 and 40 bpm. A faster rhythm is known as accelerated idioventricular ...

VT storm is defined as three or more episodes of sustained VT within a 24-hour period, each requiring termination by an intervention such as cardioversion, antitachycardia pacing (ATP) or ...

Introduction: Antitachycardia pacing (ATP) has been shown to be effective in terminating ventricular tachyarrhythmias painlessly in ICD patients. Similar success rates for various algorithms for ATP ...

Methods: Bipolar right ventricular tip-to-ring EGMs were recorded at rest (mean heart rate 66 ± 16 bpm) for 5.5 ± 2.6 minutes in 75 patients (58 ± 14 years, 72% men) with ischemic (60%) and ...

Cardiac implanted electronic devices are commonplace in the modern practice of cardiology. This article reviews the history of the development of these technologies, with particular reference to the ...
