[Determination of the life expectancy of patients undergoing continuous endocardial stimulation].
Using an actuarial analysis, the authors studied the time of survival in 120 patients with continuous endocardiac electrostimulation. There were 37 lethal outcomes by the end of the fourth year of the follow-up, with 31 of these patients aging from 65 to 100 years. The study of the survival rate in different age groups showed that the highest survival rate was in the group below 55 years and the lowest in the group of patients aged 75 to 100 years. The study of survival in different age groups is important for the prognosis of the necessary amount of cardiostimulators with energy sources varying in relation to their operational life time.
