Value and limitations of programmed electrical stimulation of the heart in the study and treatment of tachycardias.
Open accessAbstract
A review is given on the use of programmed electrical stimulation of the heart in patients suffering from tachycardia. The application of this technique makes it possible to evaluate mechanisms of tachycardia directly in the human heart. By repeating the same stimulation program following drug administration the effect of drugs on arrhythmia mechanisms can be studied. There are several factors, however, that influence the amount of information on mechanism and pathway of tachycardia and selection of appropriate therapy that can be obtained during the study. These factors as well as how information obtained programmed electrical stimulation of the heart has resulted in a better use of the 12-lead electrocardiogram as a diagnostic tool are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
