Trigger Pacing
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
Pacing
DDD VDD DDI DVI AAI VVI
Triggered
pacing
DDT VDT DDI/T DVT AAT VVT
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.
