{{Information | |||
|Description = This is an illustration of pectoral muscle pacemaker inhibition. It is particularly interesting as it shows a maker channel to document what the pacemaker is seeing. This patient was totally dependent on his pacer and was loosing consciousness in spite of his pacemaker. | |||
These are two separate strips from the same session. The stars represent paced beats, the diamonds sensed beats, and the diamonds with a cross indicate noise. | |||
Note the EKG records the muscle artifact (noisy baseline) and note the sensing of the pectoral muscle and the loss of paced beats as documented in the marker channel. | |||
The patient's symptoms stopped with reprogramming the pacemaker. | |||
