Introducer sheath
What is Cordis
Pacing device located in the ventricles and sensing ventricular activity. Device will inhibit itself from pacing when it senses patient electrical activity
What is VVI
The Cordis side arm should have a minimum IV fluid running
What is 10ml/hr
Depolarization of the heart by an artificial stimulus delivered by the Pacemaker; pacer spike followed by QRS associated with a pulse
What is Capture
Single wire with both a cathode (negative) and anode (positive) electrode
What is Bipolar pacing wire
20-200 bpm
What is rate
Mode the bedside monitor needs to be set on for TTVP insertion
What is Pace mode
The Pacemaker detects intrinsic electrical activity of the patient
What is Sensitivity
Medtronic Single Chamber Temporary Transvenous Pacemaker
What is Pulse generator
The current measured in milliamperes
What is Output
The authority for adjusting rate, output and sensitivity of TTVP Pacemaker
Who is MRP/ delegate
Use of multifunction pads attached to the Zoll machine set on Pacer mode
What is Transcutaneous pacing
It joins the Pulse generator to the Pacing catheter. Processed by MDRP after use
What is Pacemaker bridging cable
Pacing device located in the atrium and sensing atrial activity. Device will inhibit itself from pacing when it senses patient electrical activity
What is AAI
Monitor and record as the pacer wire is being inserted
What is Arrhythmias
Delivers electrical stimulus at selected rate regardless of patient's intrinsic electrical activity
What is Asynchronous pacing
Two red pins for connection
What is Pacemaker adapter pins
Pacing device located in the ventricle and not sensing activity . Device will not inhibit itself from pacing when it senses patient electrical activity. Fixed pacing of the ventricle.
What is VOO
Post procedure confirmation for TTVP placement
What is chest x-ray
Delivers electrical stimulus only when needed and the pacemaker detects the patient’s intrinsic electrical activity and inhibits the pacemaker from firing an electrical stimulus
What is Synchronous Pacing
