Supports feasibility of automatic atrial threshold tracking; leaves open clinical utility, safety, and outcomes in larger prospective studies.
Does a new method of evoked response detection allow for reliable atrial capture detection and automatic threshold tracking in patients undergoing pacemaker implant?
A new method of evoked response detection allows for reliable atrial capture detection and makes automatic atrial threshold tracking feasible during pacemaker implantation.
Livingston et al. (1988) studied Patients undergoing routine pacemaker implant (n=16). Atrial evoked response detection and experimental threshold-tracking pacemaker was evaluated on Detection of atrial evoked response. A new method of atrial evoked response detection was successful in all 16 patients during routine pacemaker implant, demonstrating that automatic atrial threshold tracking is feasible.
