Problems of artificial pacemaker therapy.

Japanese Circulation Journal, 1985
Four hundred and sixty-seven cases with implantation of an artificial pacemaker were studied. The postoperative survival rate was 63% for 15 years. Seventy-two percent of type III patients of the sick sinus syndrome were free from postoperative thromboembolism and the lowest of the three types of the sick sinus syndrome.
