Abstract

AutoCapture algorithm helps the pacemakers to automatically adjust output close to the pacing threshold. This algorithm monitors the evoked response signal of myocardial depolarization, and delivers a high output back-up pulse if there is a loss of capture. This case, with two pacemaker spikes on the QRS complexes in a patient with VVI pacemaker, simulating a sensing failure, demands clear understanding of AutoCapture function before labeling the pacemaker malfunction.
