Hi ,
Your father was put on pacermaker for heart it's a small electrical device that signals the heart to pump.It has regularly monitored as advised by your cardiologist,in that letter they wound have mentioned 'No phasing' meaning device is not generating signals .If it is Demand pacemaker then no issues as your heart is generating own impulses.Otherwise you need to consult Electrophysiologist or cardiologist as advised.
