Abstrakt: We present the case of a patient with a DDD pacemaker and intermittent P wave sensing due to T wave oversensing by the ventricular lead. The T wave sensing caused initiation of an extended atrial refractory period and the P waves, falling within this period, were not sensed. The problem was solved by decreasing the ventricular sensitivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
