Inappropriate tachycardia at rest as a consequence of atrial preference pacing algorithm
A 34-year-old female with a past medical history of sick sinus syndrome which requiring placement of single chamber (atrial) permanent pacemaker (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA). One year after pacemaker implantation, the patient reported exercise intolerance and palpitation at rest. Device interro...
