Effect of biphasic endocardial countershock on pacing threskolds in humans
In summary, we have demonstrated that pacing thresholds are elevated in some patients following biphasic countershock with an endocardial lead. These results are relevant for the design and implantation of endocardial lead systems, and support the use of higher postshock pacing outputs.
