Abstract

The purpose of this review was to evaluate the yield of atrial & ventricular stimulation threshold (ST) assessments at each routine six month pacemaker clinic (PC) visit. Since n 1983, and as reported in 1995, six monthly ST have been performed in all 886 actively followed pts: 73.34 ± 0.27 (range 16-102 yrs) with programmable output pacing systems (PS) to establish reduced output levels for safe capture margins while maintaining pulse generator longevity. All records of pts with PS implanted for greater than 24 months were retrospectively reviewed for ST stability.
