Ist die asynchrone ventrikuläre Schrittmacherstimulation gefährlich?

Abstract

Inducement of ventricular tachyarrhythmias during asynchronous ventricular pacing is an extreme rarity. Patients at risk for these rare events are only those with acute myocardial ischemia or severe electrolyte imbalance, and those with organic cardiac disease, reduced left ventricular function and spontaneous ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Asynchronous ventricular pacing can be considered as safe.
