Question 1 of 5
A client is admitted to the critical care unit (CCU) with a third degree complete heart block. A temporary transvenous pacemaker is inserted by the healthcare provider (HCP). An hour after pacemaker insertion, the device stops sensing the client's intrinsic heart rate. Which action should the nurse implement first?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Loss of sensing means the pacemaker is not detecting intrinsic heart activity. Adjusting the sensitivity setting ensures proper recognition and pacing.
