This report describes how the testing magnet was used to diagnose intermittent and incomplete electrode fracture in two patients with an implanted demand pacemaker. During fixed-rate pacing the interval between two consecutive pacemaker spikes intermittently doubled in length, suggesting that the pulse generator was continuing to fire on time into a transiently disrupted circuit. Attenuated pacemaker spikes occurring at the anticipated time of pacemaker discharge also provided a diagnostic clue. Ventricular electrograms from the defective electrodes registered small false signals.
