摘要
We describe a 12-lead electrocardiogram image of a pacemaker malfunction due to atrial lead displacement. Facilitating the understanding of pacemaker timing cycles could explain the underlying mechanisms in this instance. This review utilizes the feature of the ventricular safety pacing interval to discern between atrial lead displacement and reversal. (C) 2012 King Saud University.
