Description
Summary:	Some methodical problems are discussed that are of practical importance for the performance of transvenous endocardial pacing of the heart in patients with acute myocardial infarction in whom the clinical course is complicated by an atrio-ventricular block. Some results of the employment of this method in 66 cases of acute myocardial infarction are presented. A set of criteria is suggested for controlling the proper position of the probe in the cardiac cavity, the most important approaches for the introduction of the probe are described, as well as the main reasons of ineffective cardiac pacing and its most common complications.
