Vertigo, lightheadedness, syncope, and hypotension occurring after implantation of a ventricular pacemaker has become known as pacemaker syndrome. In one patient with this syndrome we have demonstrated an associated decrease in the pulse amplitude of the ophthalmic arteries during ventricular pacing by utilizing ocular pneumoplethysmography (O.P.G.). This non-invasive technique was subsequently used intra-operatively to test the presence of ophthalmic artery pulse amplitude changes after implantation of the ventricular electrode. An A-V sequential pacemaker was then implanted and eliminated all symptoms of pacemaker syndrome.
植入心室起搏器后出现的眩晕、头晕、晕厥和低血压已被称为起搏器综合征。在一名患有该综合征的患者中，我们利用眼体积描记法（O.P.G.）证明了心室起搏期间眼动脉脉搏振幅的相关降低。这种非侵入性技术随后在手术中用于测试心室电极植入后眼动脉脉搏振幅变化的存在。然后植入了一个房室顺序起搏器，消除了起搏器综合征的所有症状。
