[Anesthesia in the patient with a pacemaker or implanted automatic defibrillator].
Many patients carry pace-makers, and even automatic defibrillators. As anyone, these patients may develop surgical diseases and require surgery and anesthesia. The particularities of the anesthetic management of such patients are developed, as well as the needed surgical adaptations (particularly concerning electrocoagulation). Most of these patients can be operated on an anesthetized, taking certain precautions. In some difficult cases, it is necessary to collaborate with a cardiologist.
