8.2 Choosing the Pacer Mode Setting
• Use the demand mode pacing whenever possible. Only use the fixed mode pacing when there are
interferes causing R-wave unreliable or no available ECG electrodes.
8.2.1 Demand Mode Pacing Procedure
• Routinely assess the patient’s cardiac output.
• Pacing will not start if there is a problem with the pads cable connection, pad patient connection, or
ECG monitoring electrodes connection. If any situation occurs, a message will appear in the pacer
information area to alert you that a lead is disconnected or that the electrode pads have a poor
connection.
8.2.2 Fixed Mode Pacing Procedure
• For fixed mode pacing, R-wave markers do not appear on the paced beats.
