| Abstract: | ![]()
Cross stimulation in a dual chamber pacing system, in which the atrial stimulus intermittently captured the right ventricle, occurred immediately after pacemaker implantation in a 71-year-old man. It was prevented temporarily by reducing the pacing rate so that P wave synchronous ventricular (VDD) pacing resulted and by reducing the output of the atrial circuit from 5 to 4 volts. Cross stimulation disappeared spontaneously 14 days after surgery. |
