Pacemaker pacing question.
by PikaPika88, Jul 03, 2008 03:56AM
I just curious why the pacemaker has to pace the Atrial and ventricle in the same time?
If Sick Sinus Symptom or A-Fib happen, why can't just pace the Atrial and leave the ventricle alone?
If the AV node not function, why can't just pace the ventricle and leave the Atrial alone. As everyone knows, some people have A-Fib for few weeks also never mind!
