IEGM Recordings
IEGM Recording during Mode Switching
This type is initiated by mode switching. The parameters can only be
set in the Mode Switching function.
Note: Do not activate IEGM recording for high atrial rates
and for mode switching at the same time.
IEGM Recording during High Ventricular Rates
This type is initiated by high ventricular rates and ventricular
tachycardias. The following parameter triggers recording during high
ventricular rates:
The ventricular detection rate determines how high a rate must
be before ventricular tachycardia is considered definite and the
recording is started.
IEGM Recording Triggered by the Patient
The patient can start the recording by placing a magnet (M50) over the
implant.
Note: Program the magnet effect to [synchronous] when
IEGM recording should be possible by the patient.
Caution! Due to the compression and reconstruction
processes that the signals undergo, the IEGM
recordings are not suitable for direct morphologic
analyses. If you have activated the "patient-
triggered IEGM recording" function, please tell the
patient how to use the magnet to trigger an IEGM
recording.
Have the patient review the information included
with the pacemaker, including the section entitled
"Storing Intracardiac Data Through Magnet
Application."
