| pacemaker-mediated t. |
in patients with dual chamber pacemakers, tachycardia caused by retrograde conduction of ventricular impulses, either premature ventricular complexes or impulses triggered by ventricular pacing which are sensed by the atria and trigger a subsequent ventricular impulse; an endless loop may develop. Called also endless loop t.

| pacemaker |
The "natural " pacemaker of the heart is called the sinus node. The sinus node is a small mass of special cells in the top of the right atrium of the heart. It produces the electrical impulse that goes to the left atrium and travels down to reach the ventricular muscle. These impulses cause the heart to contract or beat. The term "artificial pacemaker" is applied to an electrical device that can be used to replace a defective natural pacemaker or conduction pathway. ...
