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.

INTERFERENCE WITH CARDIAC PACING
Cardiology Clinics, 2000Most exposures to electromagnetic interference are transient and pose no threat to patients with pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators. Prolonged exposure may be catastrophic in pacemaker dependent patients. New technologies (wireless phones, electronic antitheft surveillance) are safe if proper precautions are takes.

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1998
Indications for cardiac pacing in pediatric patients continue to expand. In addition to its traditional use in sinus and atrioventricular nodal disease, applications for cardiac pacing now include treatment of tachyarrhythmias after repair of congenital heart disease, reduction of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic ...

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.

Transesophageal cardiac pacing
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1969Abstract 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.

Sinus node disease and atrioventricular block are common etiologies of symptomatic bradyarrhythmias in the elderly and remain the leading indications for permanent pacemaker implantation. In fact, the vast majority (>80%) of all pacemakers are implanted in the elderly.

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.
