    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Cardiology
    • Medical Devices

    Background:

    • Temporary cardiac pacing is crucial for managing bradyarrhythmias during surgery.
    • Transcutaneous pacing offers a non-invasive alternative to endocardial pacing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcutaneous temporary pacing.
    • To assess its utility in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia.

    Main Methods:

    • Twenty-one patients undergoing elective surgical procedures were included.
    • Transcutaneous pacing was applied, and pacing thresholds were recorded.
    • Adverse effects were monitored throughout the procedure.

    Main Results:

    • Complete cardiac capture was achieved in all 21 patients.
    • Pacing thresholds varied (50-200 mamp) and were influenced by electrode placement and patient factors.
    • No adverse events related to transcutaneous pacing were observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Transcutaneous pacing is a rapid, safe, and effective method for temporary cardiac pacing in the operating room.
    • It provides reliable cardiac capture with minimal complications.
