[Animal experiments with a new intracardial pacemaker electrode].
In order to reduce the rate of dislocation of intracardiac pacemaker electrodes, a new electrode was developed. The tip of this new electrode is helical and can be fixed between the trabecles of the right ventricle by clockwise rotation. Since the tip of this new electrode has no sharp hooks the myocard cannot be damaged by fixation.
