With increasing use of artificial cardiac pacing, criteria for selection of patients have been refined. In general, the most important indication for pacing is the presence and severity of symptoms due to bradyarrhythmias. Use of pacing in acute myocardial infarction remains controversial, but some guidelines are presented here.

Sleeping threshold change causing failure of artificial cardiac pacing.
JAMA, 1971To the Editor.— Along with environmental, metabolic, and pharmacologic influences on artificial cardiac pacing, important threshold changes have been reported to occur incident to changes in physical activity. 1 Clinically evident interruption of pacing as the result of these influences has largely been reported as a result of drug administration. 2,3

Medical and physiological considerations in the use of artificial cardiac pacing. Part I
American Heart Journal, 1968Abstract This review has been concerned with medical and physiological considerations in the clinical use of cardiac pacing. Certain problems were selected for discussion and the relevant pathology and pathophysiology treated in some depth. Particular attention was given to the Stokes-Adams syndrome, heart block complicating acute myocardial ...

Artificial Cardiac Pacing: Practical Approach
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1980With more than a third of a million patients now carrying permanently implanted electronic pacemakers and with the lives of many of these patients absolutely dependent on that device, physicians now require at least rudimentary knowledge of their function.

Artificial Cardiac Pacing: A Practical Approach
Archives of Surgery, 1984Gone are the halcyon days when a patient could have a syncopal episode, obtain a diagnosis of heart block, receive a comprehensible ventricular-demand pacemaker, thank you profusely, go home, and live happily ever after. Your tax dollar has sired a space program resplendent with sophisticated microprocessing and computerization that are readily ...

Cardiac troponin-I concentrations in dogs with bradyarrhythmias before and after artificial pacing
Journal of Veterinary Cardiology, 2010To quantify cardiac troponin-I (cTnI) concentration in dogs with symptomatic bradyarrhythmias before and after artificial pacing and to correlate cTnI concentration with diagnosis, echocardiographic parameters, serology, and outcome.Medical records from the University of Pennsylvania from 2006 to 2009 were reviewed, and 14 dogs with cTnI assay results ...

Clinically, countershock of ventricular fibrillation (VF) may result in asystole or a pulseless rhythm in more than 50% of attempts. We conducted a study to assess the effects of immediate artificial pacing, CPR, and adrenergic drug therapy in the management of postcountershock pulseless rhythms. Thirty-four episodes of VF followed by countershock were
