May guide temporary pacing decisions in perioperative care; leaves open need for prospective trials on optimal techniques.
This review summarizes the insertion and management of temporary epicardial and transvenous pacemakers in critical care and perioperative settings.
Sullivan et al. (2015) conducted a review in Bradyarrhythmias and postoperative cardiac surgery. Temporary pacemakers (epicardial and transvenous) was evaluated.
