Transvenous Pacemaker Testing

Non-Capture

The Analyzer operates in the above continuous mode. However, every 8th
expected ventricular capture event is skipped.

Non-Function

The Analyzer operates in the above continuous mode. However no ventricular
capture events occur.

DC Leakage

The integrity of the pacemaker’s final output stage is evaluated during these
leakage tests. See Figure 4-2. Over time, the pacemaker’s active and passive
electronic components can deteriorate and possibly couple dc voltage
potentials to its final output stage.
