Short R deep S in V5, V6 pathognomonic of VT
52 Y old hypertensive presented with palpitations after jogging
This is a recording from an 80 year old man. He was taking
Hytrin, Metoprolol, Adalat, Dyazide and ASA.

Pacemaker Configurations
VOO
Indications
Temporary mode some-times used during surgery to
prevent interference from electrocautery
Pacemaker Configurations
AAI
Indications
Sick sinus syndrome in the absence of AV node
disease or atrial fibrillation.
Pacemaker Configurations
DDD
Indications
1. The combination of AV block and SSS.
2. Patients with LV dysfunction and LV hypertrophy
who need coordination of atrial and ventricular
contractions to maintain adequate CO.
Problem with Pacemaker?
Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005.
Causes:
• Threshold rise (electrolytes, drugs)
• Lead dislodgement
• Lead fracture
• RV infarct
Problem with Pacemaker?
Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005.
Causes:
• Oversensing
• Battery failure
• Internal insulation failure
• Conductor coil fracture
Problem with Pacemaker?
Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005.
Causes:
• Crosstalk
Problems with Pacemakers
Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 7th ed., 2005.
Causes:
• Undersensing
• Lead Fracture
Is this pacemaker capturing?
The Alan E. Lindsay ECG Learning Center ; http://medstat.med.utah.edu/kw/ecg/
Atrial sensed, ventricular paced
Consistent with DDD or VDD
What’s wrong?
The Alan E. Lindsay ECG Learning Center ; http://medstat.med.utah.edu/kw/ecg/
Failure to Pace
Ce patient as-t’il besoin d,un pacemaker?
Where is the block?
Second Degree A-V Block
(Mobitz I or Wenckebach)
Where is the Block?
Mobitz Type II
Third Degree A-V Bloc
ANY QUESTIONS?
