Abstract:
Objective To explore a method for rapid bedside temporary pacing by the right internal jugular vein approach.Method The right internal jugular veni puncture was taken by Jernigan technique and self made J tipped introducer was introduced to get to the high right atrium by the vein approach,then the J curvature of the introducer at the distal end is turned and directed at the tricusped valve outside the body,the lead attached to external pacemaker was inserted and advanced through the introducer until continuous ventricular captures appeared on the fluoroscopy.Results 30 patients in total were paced rapidly and successfully at bedside without Roentgenography.Continuous right ventricular pacing was got within 1~3 (median 2) minutes from vein puncture and within 6~30(median 13) seconds after the placement of the introducer had been completed,respectively.Conclusions The rapid bedside temporary pacing can be performed safely and rapidly through the J tipped introducer by the right internal jugular vein approach without Roentgenography.
