In a singlechamber&nbsp;system, one lead is used, most commonly&nbsp;pacing the right ventricle. Dual-chamber&nbsp;pacemakers have two leads, placed in the right&nbsp;atrium and right ventricle. They act synchronously&nbsp;when a slow natural heart rate is detected to&nbsp;mimic the sequential physiological contraction of&nbsp;the atria and ventricles.&nbsp;Single-chamber pacemakers may be atrial or&nbsp;ventricular. Atrial pacemakers are used where slow&nbsp;heart rate is due only to sinoatrial disease, i.e.&nbsp;where conduction between the atria and ventricles&nbsp;is intact. Single-chamber ventricular pacemakers,&nbsp;which are much more commonly used in practice,&nbsp;are appropriate where conduction between the&nbsp;atria and ventricles is impaired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[19],"tags":[30,92],"class_list":["post-225433","hta_library","type-hta_library","status-publish","hentry","category-other","tag-bradycardia","tag-pacemaker"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hta_library\/225433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hta_library"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/hta_library"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.inbit.gr\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
