Describes mechanisms of pacemaker-mediated tachycardias in patients with early VDD pacemakers.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Raises awareness of PMT mechanisms in early VDD pacing; leaves open relevance to contemporary devices.
Tachycardias related to atrial synchronous ventricular pacing are discussed. Three patients with an implanted Medtronic 2409 VDD pacemaker where tachycardias were initiated by various mechanisms are described. The problems are discussed with relation to patient evaluation and pacemaker technology. (PACE, Vol. 5, Juiy‐August, 1982)
