Temporary cardiac pacing [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1999 Temporary cardiac pacing can be a life-saving manoeuvre. The indications and techniques are well established.1 The procedure is one of the ‘essential’ components of the training programme in general internal medicine. This may be desirable, but is it wise nowadays? Is it achievable? The traditional indication for a temporary cardiac pacemaker is heart

Transoesophageal cardiac pacing [PDF]
Anaesthesia, 1982 Summary An elderly patient, whilst undergoing anaesthesia for a total hip replacement, developed a marked bradydysrhythmia suggestive of sick sinus syndrome. The heart rate was unaffected by atropine 1.2 mg administered intravenously. Cardiac pacing was achieved by means of a non‐invasive transoesophageal pacemaking catheter.

Circulation, 1999 Often, the hemodynamicabnormalities associated with heart disease can be modified, atleast for the short term, by altering the timing, sequence, and siteof cardiac electrical activation. In both hypertrophic cardiomy-opathy and dilated cardiomyopathy, dual-chamber pacing hasrelieved symptoms and improved hemodynamics in certainpatients. However, pacing

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1998
Implantation of a permanent pacemaker is the most commonly performed surgical operation involving the heart. The modern cardiac pacemaker is a complex device that can sense and pace in both the atrium and ventricle. It also modulates the pacing rate based on sensed physiologic parameters.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1980
With the availability of reliable transvenous atrial leads and advances in electronic and battery technology, pacing for the restoration of the atrioventricular sequence has become practicable. This paper presents (1) a historical review of physiological cardiac pacing, and (2) a functional description of pacemakers currently available or in clinical ...

Transvenous cardiac pacing is currently the pacing procedure of choice in patients with severe, life-threatening bradyarrhythmias that do not respond to pharmacotherapy. However, pacing catheters can be difficult to insert and frequently fail to capture in severely hypotensive patients.
