AAPC CPC Exam - Topic 8 Question 61 Discussion

An 87-year-old male with a history of atrioventricular block and prior dual-chamber pacemaker implantation presents to the cardiology clinic for an in-person device evaluation. The physician performs a full electronic analysis of the pacemaker system, assessing atrial and ventricular lead function, battery status, sensing thresholds, and pacing thresholds. After the assessment, the pacemaker settings are adjusted to optimize heart rate response. The patient tolerates the procedure well and is advised to return for routine follow-up.
