Kindly consult with the ecg graph and 24 holter report. If it really is a complete heart block with escape rhythm of heart rate 37 then your father may be experiencing some symptoms like giddiness etc and will need a permanent pacemaker because it means his normal conduction system has broken down and is not conducting the current required for pumping properly. But we can be sure only after studying the report.
