Description of Rate:
The pacing rate refers to the average
number of pacemaker’s output pulses occurring over a
specific period of time, usually one minute.
Rate (ppm) = 60000/ Interval (ms)
5.2.2
AVI (mSec) (A-V Interval)
This knob is used to set different A-V intervals in ms. It
allows continuous adjustment of the A-V interval from 20
to 300 ms.
Description
of A-V Interval :--
The set A-V Delay
determines the time interval between an Atrial event (paced
or sensed) and a Ventricular output pulse
Note:
If A-V interval is set shorter than blanking period set
value than Ventricular events may not be sensed. Also AV
interval cannot be less than blanking period. AVI less than
90 ms can be set in DOO mode only.
5.2.3
‘A’ Output (Volts) (Atrium Pulse Amplitude)
This knob is used to set Atrium pulse Amplitude in volts
values. It allows continuous adjustment of the amplitude
from 0.1 to 18 Volts.
Description of Atrium Pulse Amplitude :--
It is the
electrical pressure that causes electric current to flow.
The “60,000” Rule
60,000 divided by the ‘RATE’ equals the ‘INTERVAL’
60,000 divided by the ‘INTERVAL’ equals the ‘RATE’
