Output failure PM: Was the output failure before or after reprogramming? Output failure usually means the pacemaker is not generating a signal. Is there wire fracture or lead displacement from the e CPR? or did it exist before and lead to syncope? F/u/ w/ cardiology https://lifeinthefastlane.com/ecg-library/pacemaker-malfunction
