[Recommendations for implanting cardiac pacemakers in bradycardia].
The paper gives recommendations for cardiologists and cardiac surgeons who are engaged in working out indications, choice of the type and mode of cardiac pacing. Based on the understanding of the great importance of nomenclature documents concerning the development of indications for pacemakers implantation, the Working Group of the Expert Committee, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, for implantable antiarrhythmic devices and electrophysiology has developed recommendations on pacemaker implantation in acquired atrioventricular (AV) block, in AV-block after myocardial infarction, chronic bi- and tri-fascicular block, sinoatrial nodal dysfunction, hypersensitive carotid sinus syndrome, neurovascular syndromes, as well as in childhood bradyarrhythmias. In developing the recommendations, the authors have used their own 25-year experience in implanting pacemakers and the recommendations proposed by the Working Group of the American College of Cardiologists and the American Association of Cardiologists in 1984 and 1991 for implanting pacemakers in bradyarrhythmias. The proposed recommendations define indications and contraindications for implantation of up-to-date pacemaker models and determine the behaviour policy of a specialist in selecting patients with bradyarrhythmias for the optimal pacing mode, which suggests a compulsory certification of the centers engaged in implanting pacemakers in bradyarrhythmias.
