Original Research
Original Research
The Pacemaker Clinic at Shahid Rajai Cardiovascular Research Center first
started operating in August 1992. In its first year of operation, 294 permanent
pacemaker patients were studied, allowing an appraisal to be carried out of the
clinic's effectiveness in diagnosing and treating early complications. In the final
analysis, pacemaker complications were observed in 68 (23%) patients, of whom
38 (56%') were treated by reprogramming the unit and without requiring any
operation.
The most common type of pacemaker complication observed was "undersensing"
in 20 (29.5%) patients, followed by lack of myocardial capture by the
pacemaker in 17 (25%) patients.
Pacemaker, Undersensing, Myocardial Capture.
