ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the application of implantation temporary cardiac pacing by balloon-tipped floating catheter for peroperative period patients. Method Thirty-three patients with severe bradyarrhythmia were received the balloon-tipped floating catheter to RV by Seldinger puncture technique.Meantime, the pacing signals of ECG were observed. The threshold and QRS waves to ensure the electrode position were determined. Result All of 33 cases were successfully punctured and 32 cases get paced, except 1 case had the electro - mechanical dissociation (EMD). Pacing threshold was less than 0. 9V, and mean remaining time was 12.47 ～ 161 (67. 05 ±34. 48) hours. Apical pacing was operated in 23 patients,and right ventricular outflow tract pacing in 10 patients. No severe complications were occurred. Conclusion The implantation method of temporary cardiac pacing by balloon-tipped floating catheter was convenient and safe. It could help the patients get safety in anesthesia and peroperative period.
