Abstract

The most used technique for pacemaker implants nowadays is the endocardial, avoiding the risks of thoracotomy. Within this technique there are different methods and variables for its insertion, such as patient characteristics and the technique adopted by the surgeon. Among the main variables of this operation are the choice of venous access, type of puncture and positioning technique of the electrodes. Thus, the objective of the present study was to promote an integrative literature review on the technique of endocardial pacemaker implantation, with comments based on the author’s experience of more than two thousand implants.

Keywords: Pacemaker, Artificial; Surgical Procedures, Operative.
