Rob, good attempt. You got the diagnosis, VVI pacing right. Here are the answers: (1) Pacemaker is on in the first half of the page and off in the second half of the page. (2) VVI mode is correct. (3) Pacing rate is 120/min. (4) Atrial rate is 150/min. (5) Native ventricular rate is 60/min - second half of the page. (6) Complete heart block.
