Temporary Cardiac Pacing

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1991
The use of temporary cardiac pacing in critical care and stepdown units has grown tremendously over the past 10 years. While the concept of artificial pacing is simple, improvements in generator technology and lead design, along with broader clinical applications, have made temporary cardiac pacing more complex. Consequently, the critical care nurse is

Cost of cardiac pacing

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1976
The patient with a permanent pacemaker faces significant lifetime medical expenses. The financial records of 15 patients with more than 4 years' (average 73 months) of cardiac pacing were reviewed to establish the basic cost of pacing. Each pacemaker was electively replaced after 24 months of service.

Transvenous cardiac pacing

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2000
Transvenous pacing therapy is a life-saving technique for patients with clinically significant bradyarrhythmias. For most symptomatic bradyarrhythmias in small animals, there is no effective substitute for cardiac pacing. The methods employed for pacemaker placement, although potentially time-consuming, are not technically difficult.

Emergency cardiac pacing

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1993
Cardiac pacing may be used for emergency control of atria1 and ventricular tachyarrhythmias and bradyrhythmias, such as symptomatic sinus bradycardia or atrioventricular block, and it may be used for prophylaxis in patients with myocardial infarction or during pulmonary artery catheter placement.

Transesophageal cardiac pacing

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1969
Abstract Our initial clinical experience with human transesophageal pacing is described. We were successful in pacing the heart of this patient at a fixed rate for 36 hours and on demand pacing for 24 additional hours, with no significant adverse effects to the esophagus.

Cardiac pacing electrodes

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1996
On the surface, the cardiac pacing lead is just a simple cable that connects the pulse generator to the heart. The simple appearance of the lead is very misleading, however. The size, longevity, and features of the pulse generator and the patient's safety depend to a large extent on the performance of the lead.

Emergency Cardiac Pacing

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1986
This discussion reviews and critiques the available emergency pacing methods for the control of symptomatic bradycardias and the management of tachyarrhythmias. In addition, attention is addressed to the emergency care of patients with permanent pacemakers.

Physiological Cardiac Pacing

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 ...

Transcutaneous Cardiac Pacing

AACN Advanced Critical Care, 1991
Pacemaker technology has experienced many advances. Today temporary pacing can be provided in several ways. This chapter examines one of these modalities, transcutaneous noninvasive pacing. In addition, this chapter reviews relevant historic milestones, describe transcutaneous pacing, state procedural aspects, and delineate important nursing aspects of
