Abstract
Permanent pacemaker implantation is required in a large number of tran splantation patients principally because of sinus node dysfunction of the donor atrium. The most suitable mode of pacing in these cases is s till subject to controversy. We describe one case of a single lead sys tem of VDD stimulation and sensing of the recipient atrial signal in a 32-year-old patient with posttransplant symptomatic sinus node dysfun ction, Physiological adaptation of rate was achieved with recovery of normal receptor sinus node function.
