The AV delay determines the longest time interval between an atrial event and the programmed delivery of a ventricular pacing pulse. This interval is the electronic equivalent of the PR interval. … A paced AV delay is implemented after atrial pacing when the pacemaker operates in DDD, DDI, DVI and DOO modes. 3, record 1, English, - paced%20atrioventricular%20delay
