The Apparent and the Effective PR Interval, Insights for Cardiac Pacing
A 75-year-old-male patient with dual chamber pacemaker presented with a bizarre EKG showing a unique spike within the QRS complex. Apparent PR interval was 160 ms and effective atrio- right ventricular delay was 210 ms due to right bundle branch block. Sensed AV delay was set at 180 ms causing pseud...

| description | A 75-year-old-male patient with dual chamber pacemaker presented with a bizarre EKG showing a unique spike within the QRS complex. Apparent PR interval was 160 ms and effective atrio- right ventricular delay was 210 ms due to right bundle branch block. Sensed AV delay was set at 180 ms causing pseudofusions. Insights regarding cardiac pacing are presented. |
