Interesting website

I was bored earlier and decided to find more information on PMs, and I came across this really useful website, which answers pretty much any technical question you can ask!

It's even got ECG readings of the heart being paced. I found this especially interesting because when I was having an EEG a couple of months ago I was also hooked up to an ECG and the tech kept asking if I felt OK which at the time I found weird because I was absolutely fine! My cardiologist later told me that the tech had seen my ECG go 'funny' when I was being paced, and that worried him. I was confused until I saw the website, and now I can fully understand why!!

Hope you find it as useful as I did!

That is an interesting web site.

Now I know what atrial fibrillation looks like on the EKG in figure 9.


Very Informative

Thanks for sharing the web site, it had some great information and was good to read how the procedures are done in detail since I have only had my PM for 2 weeks now.
