- Abstract
Background: Power‐on reset (PoR) is most commonly due to electromagnetic interference. Full PoR results in a switch to an inhibited mode (VVI) pacing and resets pacing outputs to maximal unipolar settings, leading to extracardiac stimulation. Methods: We present a case of PoR occurrence in the absence of electromagnetic interference, resulting in pectoral stimulation triggered by violation of the atrial rate limit. Conclusions: It is useful for clinicians to recognizethe occurrence of PoR in the setting of atrial limit violation andthe appropriate management in such circumstances.
