  • Title: Critical analysis of sensors for physiological responsive pacing.
    Author: Gillette P.
    Journal: Pacing Clin Electrophysiol; 1984 Nov; 7(6 Pt 2):1263-6. PubMed ID: 6209668.
    Abstract:
    Physiological responsive pacing includes the application of sensors to measure physiologic variables, which in turn are used to control pacemaker rate. Six such systems are evaluated based on a comparison of (1) speed of response, (2) sensor reliability, and (3) system specificity. Although there is not a clear-cut solution, and every system has some weaknesses, several sensors seem more feasible than others. Much research remains to be done, and the indications and patient benefits must be established.
