Tachycardia-induced unexpected pacemaker behaviour
At the beginning of the recording, atrial tachycardia (AT) can be observed with 1:1 conduction at ventricular rate 140 bpm (upper track). At the spontaneous termination of the tachycardia, atrial-ventricular pacing at 45 bpm (lower rate) and after two cycles atrialventricular pacing at 100 beats/min (upper track) can be observed. The rate drop response was activated: drop size 25 ppm, drop rate...
متن کاملTachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy caused by a special pacemaker algorithm.
An elderly lady presented with breathlessness, fever and palpitations. She was treated for community-acquired pneumonia with antibiotics. Subsequently, she went into acute pulmonary edema. She was managed with standard heart failure medications and a trial of noninvasive ventilation. ECG showed A-V sequential pacing at a rate of 150/min with broad QRS. It was thought to be a pacemaker-related t...
متن کاملReversion of ventricular tachycardia by pacemaker stimulation.
Reversion of ventricular tachycardia to either sinus rhythm or atrialfibrillation has been achieved in a group ofpatients by rapid ventricular pacing. The standard technique involved pacing at a rate slightly in excess of the existing tachycardia until ventricular capture was achieved. Cessation ofpacing after afew seconds was usuallyfollowed by a supraventricular rhythm, though pacing at a low...
متن کاملTachycardia in the presence of a pacemaker.
A 84 year old woman was admitted with palpitations of a few days' duration. She had a dual chamber permanent pacemaker (DDD) fitted five years ago for complete heart block. She was tachycardic with a heart rate of around 120 beats/min but haemodyna-mically stable. A rhythm strip is shown below (see fig 1). QUESTIONS (1) What is the electrocardiographic diagnosis? (2) Is the pacemaker malfunctio...
متن کاملPacemaker-induced tachycardia during general anaesthesia: a case report.
Pacemakers with a rate-responsive function, based on calculation of ventilatory minute volume, may induce tachycardia in patients who undergo hyperventilation during general anaesthesia. If hyperventilation is desired, it is recommended that the pacemaker is reprogrammed in order to avoid tachycardia. If the programming device is not available, a magnet may be placed over the pacemaker site to ...
