OFF, ON, ATM
When Atrial Capture Control is OFF, the user can manually program the output based on current
threshold and physician preference.
When Atrial Capture Control is ON, the feature will determine the capture threshold and program the
output based on the capture threshold and programmable safety margin. The device will then perform
routine threshold tests based on the programmed scheduled time.
The threshold value is stored in the measured threshold values in the pacing portion of the device
statistics as well as in the device follow-up history.
Atrial Capture Control will continue to test for atrial thresholds even when previous attempts have failed.
In other words, it will not disable the algorithm unless a lead failure or ERI is detected.
The ATM mode differs from Capture Control ON, as ATM does not adjust the pacing voltage
automatically. It does, however, store the measured threshold values in the pacing portion of the
Statistics for review and in the follow-up history of the device. In the ATM mode, the clinician controls
the pacing output.
Minimum Amplitude
0.5...(0.1)...4.8 V, default 1.0 V.
This is the minimum atrial pacing output to which the device can be automatically programmed,
regardless of the measured threshold. The Minimum amplitude can never be programmed higher than
the Threshold test start value. This restriction is shown by the symbol.
Threshold Test Start
2.4 V, 3.0 V, 3.6 V, 4.2 V and 4.8 V, default 3.0 V
This is the starting voltage when Capture Control (ON or ATM) is looking to determine the current
threshold. This value should only be changed to a higher value if the patient has high thresholds.
Safety Margin
0.5 V...(0.1 V)...1.2 V, default of 1.0 V
This is the amount of pacing output added to the measured threshold value to ensure capture. This
takes into account minor changes in thresholds throughout the day. For example, if the threshold was
0.7 V, the device would add the 1.0 V safety margin to the 0.7 V threshold and program the pacing
output to 1.7 V. The lowest the output that can be programmed is the Minimum amplitude value,
regardless of the threshold.
5.14.2 Search Type
Interval / Time of Day
This feature determines when the device performs a Capture Control test to check the current
threshold.
• Interval — Interval starts the next Active Threshold Monitoring test at a programmed time from
when the previous threshold test was performed. The interval begins with a permanent program
being sent to the device. This time may vary due to retesting or programming changes. By
default, it is set to once every 24 hours.
