Pacemakers can be programmed to pace and to sense in a bipolar mode (lead tip to lead ring) or a unipolar mode (lead tip to pulse generator). Bipolar sensing is preferred due to its smaller sensing “antenna,” which minimizes oversensing of extracardiac signals.
Mode switch: Some pacemakers have a mode switch function that allows triggering to be switched off during a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia.
7 sie 2023 · Most patients can be managed with one of three common modes (AAI, VVI, or DDD), with or without rate responsiveness. Contemporary pacemakers are versatile and capable of the most commonly used pacing modes and basic functions (ie, mode switching and rate responsiveness).
17 sty 2019 · VVI or VVIR: VVI(R) is one of the more commonly used pacing modes. VVI(R) is ventricular demand pacing. The ventricle is paced, sensed, and the pulse generator inhibits pacing output in response...

VVI Mode Given the nomenclature , VVI essentially functions as the antithesis to AAI; it only concerns itself with the BPM of the bottom chamber of the organ. This mode is a common way to treat patients presenting an AF with slow ventricular response; the atria don’t have a real beat in AF, so the best course is to ensure the ventricles ...
30 cze 2015 · The ventricle is sensed, and if it produces a QRS, the pacemaker sits quietly and waits. The VVI pacemaker will only fire if there has been no ventricular electrical activity within the interval specified by its set rate. VVT - ventricular pacing. Again, this is a pacing mode of purely historical interest.
