Summary

DescriptionPacemaker dependent asystole.jpg
English: ECG rhythm strip of a threshold determination in a patient with a temporary (epicardial) ventricular pacemaker. The epicardial pacemaker leads were placed after the——patient collapsed during aortic valve surgery. In the "first half of the tracing," pacemaker stimuli at 60 beats per minute result in a wide QRS complex with a right bundle branch block pattern. Progressively weaker pacing stimuli are administered, "which results in asystole in the second half of the tracing." At the end of the tracing, distortion results from muscle contractions due——to a (short) hypoxic seizure. Because decreased pacemaker stimuli do not result in a ventricular escape rhythm, "the patient can be," said——to be pacemaker-dependent and "needs a definitive pacemaker."
