Abstract
To overcome the limitation of the fixed heart rate of VVI/DDD pacing, devices having a system of sensors able to modify the rate of pulse discharge and to meet the metabolic needs of the patients (DDDR/VVIR pacing) have been tested in several investigations [1–6]. In addition, the superiority of DDDR pacing versus WIR pacing due to the preservation of the a-v synchronism has been proven especially when the atrioventricular (AV) delay is also rate-adaptive [2–6].
