  • Title: Temporary transvenous pacemakers in the community hospital.
    Author: Northcutt CE, Morgan JD, Ligon RE.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1975 May; 11(5):115-8. PubMed ID: 1130246.
    Abstract:
    The use of temporary transvenous pacemakers has become firmly established. While the technique of temporary pacing is by no means the answer to all problems associated with myocardial infarction, it has clearly been lifesaving for certain patients treated in the community hospital. Temporary pacing is a simple and safe procedure with relatively few complications. It can be done in the community hospital by the faimly physician who has an interest in cardiology.
