Long-term Follow-up of Pacemakers with an Autocapture Pacing System.

Abstract

ER, R wave amplitude, and PS, which are the main parameters for the continuation of Autocapture function, did not change significantly during long-term follow-up. High output back up pacing provided additional safety for sudden rises in threshold. The Autocapture pacing algorithm was found to be effective and reliable during long-term follow-up.
