[Temporary electrocardiostimulation in paroxysmal arrhythmias in patients with ischemic heart disease]

The efficiency of temporary atrial and ventricular electrocardiostimulation (ECS) used for the control and prevention of recurrent and drug-resistant arrhythmias was studied in 37 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and cardiosclerosis, including 21 patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). The possibility of applying superfrequent ventricular ECS for controlling paroxysms of ventricular tachycardia in acute MI patients, and high efficiency of accelerating-suppressing ECS for the prevention of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation paroxysms are demonstrated.
