title: Inappropriate slowing of the pacemaker rate with programmable demand pacemaker.
abstract: A 60-year-old male with a programmable pacemaker developed inappropriate slowing of the pacemaker rate. This was due to oversensing of the T waves combined with after-potential sensing. This does not represent generator malfunction and can usually be corrected by reprogramming the pulse duration, or the milliamperage.
