The new AV sequential pacemakers have improved the suitability for the election of the best pacing mode for each patient. The complexity of the systems may mask some dysfunctions. In the presented case, a failure to capture due to micro-dislodgment, may have been missed in a simple pacemaker control, because of the combination of several factors: the presence of normal AV conduction at that moment, the concordance between the pacemaker stimulus and the conducted QRS complex and the similar morphology of the conducted and paced QRS complex.
