AOO
(Atrial Asynchronous Pacing)
In AOO mode, the device paces the atrium at the programmed rate regardless of intrinsic rhythm.
CAUTION: AOO mode is primarily intended for temporary use. Long-term use may
result in competitive pacing, which may induce potentially dangerous
tachyarrhythmias.

ODO

CAUTION: ODO mode is not recommended for pacemaker-dependent patients or
patients who might be affected by even a short cessation of the device's operation.
In this mode, pacing is turned off while the device continues to detect and record sensed events.
This mode is useful primarily for temporary diagnostic evaluation and recording of intrinsic
activity.

NOTE: Only persons properly trained to operate the Merlin™ PSA system should do so. See
