ABSTRACT:
A heart pacing and monitoring system includes a new lead system which, when used in conjunction with a telemetry-pacemaker system, permits the transmission of the complete intracardiac electrogram and is not adversely affected by pacemaker outputs or after potentials. Detecting ring electrodes are placed in both right atrium and ventricle in order to optimize electrogram (EGM) detection. Electrically separate from the pacing-sensing electrodes, the detecting electrodes are structurally part of a transvenously placed ventricular lead no larger than a conventional bipolar lead. The EGM telemetry system is also compatible with telephone monitoring systems. The present system is operative to detect and telemetrically record the entire normal and abnormal electrogram even in pacer dependent patients.
