Table 17. ECG Pacer Interactive Test Custom Parameters
Parameter Description
Response Waveform The type of patient response to simulate:
• Demand: Normal sinus rhythm at specified rate. Pacer in demand mode can interact so it
paces when the normal rate is too slow. Heart responds to pacer pulses at or above
threshold.
• Asystole: No heartbeat, but heart responds to pacer pulses at or above threshold.
• Non-capture: Same as Asystole, but heart fails to respond to one out of every ten pacer
pulses.
• Non-function: No heartbeat and no response to pacing.
Rate Beats per minute to use for the Demand Response Waveform
Duration How long the simulation should last
Setting can range from 1 to 60 seconds. If the “Indefinite” checkbox is checked, the duration is
ignored, and the test must be manually stopped by the field user (Stop in TEST GUIDE toolbar).
Response Threshold The level of pacing current required to generate a heart response
