Can St Jude's Pacemaker PM2210 provide a recording


I want to know if Can St Jude's Pacemaker PM2210 provide a recording of a specific time period. In order to find out if the pacemaker mal-functioned or some interference from external magnetic field or anything like that caused a problem, it would be helpful to get a report of heart function for a specific time period. Is that possible to obtain from St Jude's Pacemaker PM2210? How can that be done? Thank you very much.

It does not record like an ekg, no, so it can't tell you what your heart was doing at any given time. However, it does keep track of the pacing so yes, they should be able to go to a particular time and see what the pacer was doing then. If you were near a magnet strong enough to interfere and put it in test mode, that will show up on the reports. I've done that a few times, something felt off so I jotted down the time and mentioned it at my next check.

Can you mind telling me the cost of your PM

I just had a St Jude PM model PM2160 installed here in Mexico. The Dr. Said since it records every heart beat for 14 years and is the latest PM out, the cost is $50 k in the USA.
My total cost for Doctor, hospital and PM was $6400 dollars. Seems too good to be true.

You know you're wired when...

You prefer rechargeable batteries.
