  KEYWORDS: Late Rising Pacing Threshold

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Internal Medicine, Vol.1 No.1, June 29, 2011

  ABSTRACT: Late rising in pacing threshold is an uncommon complication of permanent pacing. Treatment with high dose systemic steroid could spare the patient another procedure. We report a case of late rising pacing threshold that responded to high dose sys-temic steroid which lowered the pacing threshold to one volt, then rose again to around 2 volts.
