Spanish term

pacing MPS

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Resting ECG
Hi all,

This is Spanish, from a cardiology dept. report for an elderly patient (who has congestive heart failure, diabetes [NIDDM], high BP, obesity), chief complaint = dilated myocardiopathy.
In a table of complementary tests I've got:

"Prueba Resultados
ECG reposo Pacing MPS."

I presume "MPS = murmullo presistólico", (presystolic murmur), but the "pacing" part?? I guess it's just Spanglish but I can't find refs for "pacing presystolic murmur".
Any help appreciated.
Proposed translations (English)
3 +2 pacemaker rhythm
References

Chema Nieto Castañón Feb 12, 2019:
Pues sí, es extraño que no se mencione.
Sin embargo, sin más contexto, no consigo imaginar otro sentido aquí para pacing MPS. ¿Podría ser que se lo implantasen durante el propio ingreso (durante el propio proceso descrito en el informe)?
Neil Ashby (asker) Feb 10, 2019:
Thanks Joseph, Chema, makes sense, but I find a little strange that it doesn't mention a pacemaker in the section "Cardiovascular history"....?
Chema Nieto Castañón Feb 8, 2019:
Sí, tal y como sugiere Tom, MPS se refiere a marcapasos, y pacing alude a éste; marcapasos (normo)funcionante; marcapasos que estimula cada latido en el ECG.
Joseph Tein Feb 8, 2019:
MPS It probably stands for Marcapasos here.
Thomas Walker Feb 8, 2019:
pacing I think "pacing" refers back to the ECG, not directly to the murmur. I'm not really up to speed to this level on ECG procedures, but it seems to refer to some of the parameters in advanced ECG testing. See for example: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S097262921... & http://en.my-ekg.com/pacemaker-ekg/pacemaker-ekg.html

pacemaker rhythm

Pacing MPS, como descripción de un electrocardiograma, significa sin lugar a dudas "marcapasos funcionante"; en el ECG se evidencia la presencia de un marcapasos que estimula cada latido; se evidencia un ritmo de marcapasos.
En cuanto a la expresión equivalente en inglés, creo que pacemaker rhythm podría servir.
