Ventricular oversensing of atrial electrical activity that inhibits VVI pacemaker and causes syncope
Far-field oversensing of atrial electrical activity caused by a VVI pacemaker is a rare phenomenon; however, it may have serious clinical consequences. It has several causes and its timely identification may avoid a possible ventricular asystole. This article reports the case of a 72-year-old male w...
