MODES OF PACING
Over the years pacemakers have developed from the very early devices
which merely delivered a timed impulse at set amplitude in a single
chamber, and paid no attention to the patient’s intrinsic rhythm.
Now even temporary pacemakers are relatively sophisticated devices which
can deliver a range of therapeutic options from the basic fixed rate
asynchronous, to dual chamber demand pacing.
In order to be able to easily communicate to others the potential capabilities
and actual programming of pacemakers, it was necessary to develop a
code, which is shown here, generally called the NBG code. Generally the first
three codes are utilised.

CODES: WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?

Defines the chambers that are paced/sensed

Defines how the pacemaker will respond to intrinsic events


P
ACING : first letter is chamber being
paced


S
ENSING: relates to the chamber in which the pacemaker is attempting
to
sense
the patient’s intrinsic rhythm.

R
ESPONSE: relates to the pacemakers
response
to the sensed intrinsic
beat, either triggered or inhibited
