crosstalk (kros´tawk) in cardiology, inappropriate detection of the atrial stimulus by the ventricular sensing mechanism, usually seen with dual chamber pacemakers; it can lead to asystole. Pacemakers are now able to respond to crosstalk with an obligatory ventricular pacing stimulus at a shorter than average A-V interval.
