Overview

Patients with pacemaker syndrome present with varied symptoms resulting from dyssynchrony between atria and ventricles. Pacemaker syndrome should be differentiated from the following diseases:Acute coronary syndrome, failed pacemaker, hypothyroidism, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, arrhythmias (especially supraventricular tachycardias), hyperthyroidism, pulmonary embolism, and carotid sinus hypersensitivity.

Differentiating Pacemaker syndrome from other Diseases

Patients with pacemaker syndrome present with varied symptoms resulting from dyssynchrony between atria and ventricles.

Presenting symptoms include:

Pacemaker syndrome should be differentiated from the following diseases:

Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]

On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
