ABSTRACT
Thirty-five patients were implanted with the Sequicor DDD pacemaker between September 1, 1981 and March 1, 1982. The mean age was 61.7 years (range, 17-88). According to their ECGs, the patients fell into two distinct groups--those with A-V block and those with sick sinus syndrome. Our initial experience has indicated an excellent electronic component function (except for 1 discrepant reed switch); high battery drain of the Sequicor; complications similar to those seen with DVI or VVI pacing; and an increase in the hemodynamic benefits resulting from DDD as compared to DVI or VVI pacing in 70% of patients.
