The Intracavitary Compass: Intracavitary Electrogram Guided Temporary Pacing when Fluoroscopy is Unavailable
Temporary transvenous pacemaker (TPM) placement without fluoroscopy is typically guided solely by surface electrocardiogram (ECG), a technique lacking anatomical precision and associated with procedural risks. We describe a safer alternative based on continuous intracavitary electrogram (I-EGM) monitoring, obtained directly from the pacing lead during implantation. In a patient with complete atrioventricular block and urgent indication […]
