Hi Janis, nice job. I just wanted to point out that the difference between DDI and DDD is that in DDI the atrial tracking is off and DDD the atrial tracking is on. DDI is used in instances when the SA node is firing at a rapid rate and you would not want the pacemaker to respond to every one of those P waves as it could precipitate pacemaker mediated tachycardia. By switching to DDI mode not every P wave is tracked. this is a bit of a simplistic explanation but just wanted to help people understand the difference in those 2 modes
Excellent basic need to know video on using the Medtronic external pacemaker.

Great walk through!
Awesone ...I've started working in cardiac thoracic ward n this video so helpful ...thank you ....looking forward to more videos
Thank you! This was a really helpful video!
Well explained
Very thankyyyy .please we want practic realy video about ddd placment .and thanky
Wow nice
The pacemaker does not sense QRS complex- it only senses the R wave
Can I use this clip to attach my PowerPoint presentation?
