Help with interpreting interrogation numbers

Prior to last session: (45 days) -- Since last session: (34 days)
AS-VS 49.8% 65.4%
AS-VP <0.1% <0.1%
AP-VS 50.2% 34.6%
AP-VP <0.1% <0.1%

What do these changes mean? Is my pacemaker pacing less? Which numbers could I look for on my printout to tell how much battery life I have left?

Thanks in advance!

Battery life is not on this list

AS-VS is atrial sensing, ventricular sensing, i.e. just watching but not pacing

as-vp is atrial sensing, ventricular pacing so you are not pacing ventricular

ap - vs is atrial pacing, ventricular sensing so you are pacing less than before

ap-vp is pacing both atria and ventricle, you do not do that

It's common for the numbers to vary. If they made changes to the setting last time it would affect how much you pace. Also activity level or a lot of other things can affect how much you pace. If you feel good, don't worry much about the numbers on the report. It's when you don't feel good that you need to look more closely.

your print out should say how much more battery life left

it is top corner

You know you're wired when...

Your pacemaker interferes with your electronic scale.

I am not planning on letting any of this shorten my life. I am planning on living a long happy battery operated life. You never know maybe it will keep me alive longer. I sure know one thing I would have been dead before starting school without it.
