ABSTRACT:
A cardiac pacemaker programmed to pace in a demand mode with hysteresis is further programmed to recognize and correct a pacemaker mediated bradycardia. Such a pacemaker mediated bradycardia is the result of an idioventricular rhythm that occurs while hysteresis is operative and which inhibits the pacemaker from further pacing.
