title: [Atrial versus ventricular cardiac pacing in the elderly with respect to hemodynamic data (author's transl)].
abstract: The importance of synchronized atrial and ventricular action is well known. Especially in elderly patients the circulation of the brain, the kidneys and the coronary arteries may be diminished by ventricular stimulation. Permanent atrial, atrial triggered ventricular, and bifocal stimulation increases cardiac output by 20-30 percent. From the hemodynamic data the best results during atrial stimulation are obtained at a frequency of 80 to 85 bpm.
