[Ambulatory control and follow-up of patients carrying a unicameral pacemaker].
The follow-up schedule after pacemaker implantation should be arranged to allow close monitoring during the immediate post-implant period, and frequent observations during the life of the system. Such follow-up has as major goals the evaluation of the electrical functions of the pacing system to detect malfunctions or imminent power source depletion and the evaluation of the patient cardiac status so that reprogramming can be accomplished.
