Pacing in left bundle-branch block during swan-ganz catheterization [PDF]

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1988
To the Editor. —We read with interest the recent article by Morris and colleagues 1 that reported a fairly low rate of developing complete heart block (CHB) during Swan-Ganz (SG) catheterization in patients with left bundle-branch block (LBBB). We feel that this is an important finding since several sources, including recent advanced cardiac life ...
