The triggered pacing modes are identical to the respective demand modes except that the sensing of an atrial/ventricular event outside of the refractory period does not result in inhibition of pacing, but instead a pacing pulse is delivered in the respective chamber.
The corresponding pacing modes are:
Demand | DDD | VDD | DDI | DVI | AAI | VVI |
Pacing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Triggered | DDT | VDT | DDI/T | DVT | AAT | VVT |
pacing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, the following differences exist. There is no AV safety interval in DDT, DDI/T and DVT pacing modes. The safety interval is unnecessary as “cross talk” (ventricular sensing of atrial pulses) can not occur during these modes.
