PAC & PVC

I am paced 100% of the time at 70 bpm in lower chamber per an AV Node ablation and sometimes I have problems with PAC and PVC. Apparently the pacemaker I am using (pm 2210) is recognizing these as heart beats and is causing my pulse to drop down into the 30's. Anyone have these issues?

The operable word here is "Premature."

Since they come before expected by the PM, it can do NOTHING about them. HOWEVER - the Pm will recognize them & dutifully note their existence & report them on the next data download.

Your PM can only fix events that will be late or are not going to happen.
