Abstract

GONZALES LUNA, Ana Cecilia; ORELLANA VIDAURRE, Luis  and  GUTIERREZ SOTELO, Oswaldo. Síndrome de marcapasos: cuál es el mecanismo?. Rev. costarric. cardiol [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.2, pp.46-48. ISSN 1409-4142.

Pacemaker syndrome: what is the mechanism?

We present the case of pacemaker syndrome related to the absence of atrioventricular synchrony, due to inverted and inadvertent placement of the electrodes, in a patient with complete atrioventricular block. A careful analysis of the electrocardiogram, X-ray images and intracavitary electrograms are essential for its diagnosis.

Keywords : Pacemaker syndrome; atrio - ventricular synchrony; electrodes.
