What Is Aoo Pacing

In AOO mode, the atrium is paced at a set rate regardless of atrial activity; this is asynchronous atrial pacing. In AAI mode, the atrium is sensed and the pacemaker is inhibited if the native atrial rate rises above the pacemaker set rate; this is demand atrial pacing.

What are the two types of pacing?

  • Single-chamber pacemaker. This type of pacemaker has one lead that connects the pulse generator to one chamber of your heart. …
  • Dual-chamber pacemaker. With two leads, this device connects to both chambers on the right side of your heart, the right atrium and the right ventricle. …
  • Biventricular pacemaker.

What are different pacemaker modes?

Most patients can be managed with one of two or three common modes (AAI, VVI, or DDD), with or without rate responsiveness. Contemporary pacemakers are versatile and capable of the most commonly used pacing modes and basic functions (ie, mode switching and rate responsiveness).
