A NEW METHOD FOR CARDIAC PACEMAKER INSERTION

RICHARD B. HOFFMAN M.D.1 and STEPHEN SOKOL M.D.1

1 From the Departments of Radiology and Cardiology, 2nd General Hospital, APO 09180, New York

A nonsurgical percutaneous approach utilizing the internal jugular vein for insertion of a transvenous pacemaker catheter is described.

Pacing can be rapidly accomplished, since a cut-down is not necessary nor is a frantic search for the external jugular vein necessary in the critically ill patient.

It is a relatively simple technique and one that can be easily performed by any physician who has had percutaneous catheterization experience.
