Pacemaker-induced tachycardia
Abstract
The article is devoted to pacemaker-induced tachycardia, a complication of the functioning of anti-bradyarrhythmic dual-chamber cardiac devices. Step-by-step patient counseling using the clinical approach and the PBL-STOP algorithm is considered. Particular issues of medical care are presented based on publications of clinical electrophysiologists and recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology.
