Efficacy of two commercially available cardiac pacing catheters for transesophageal atrial pacing in dogs

Abstract: Objective Compare the efficacy of two cardiac pacing catheters for transesophageal atrial pacing (TAP). Animals Ten healthy dogs. Methods Transesophageal atrial pacing was attempted in left lateral recumbency under general anesthesia. In series, a curved electrophysiologic (EP) catheter and a straight transesophageal pacing (TP) catheter were passed transorally into the distal esophagus, caudal to the heart. Each catheter was slowly withdrawn until pacing was initiated. The catheter continued to be withdra… Show more

“…The main advantages of the transvenous system are more consistent capture in patients with either sinus nodal or atrioventricular (AV) nodal disease, improved patient comfort allowing its use in sedated or awake patients, lower cost of equipment, and relative ease of insertion by experienced personnel. 10,11 The pacing catheter, either a specialized transesophageal pacing lead or a multipurpose electrophysiologic catheter, is inserted into the esophagus just dorsal to the heart. Other complications include thrombosis, bleeding, infection, ventricular arrhythmias, and cardiac perforation.…”

“…This pacing system is expensive and is available only at a few veterinary institutions. 11 As with all the other pacing systems, electrocardiography (and optionally fluoroscopy) is used to guide pacing catheter placement and identify atrial capture. 8,9,16,17 Standard ECG leads usually are connected to the dog's footpads to obtain a good-quality recording.…”

“…Two previous studies involving atrial pacing in multiple dogs assessed pulse durations of 2.0 and 10.0 ms (Sanders et al. ; Chapel & Sanders ). In each case, TAP was successful without significant EMS, but PT, defined as the lowest level of pacing stimulus that results in successful pacing, was lower using the 10.0 ms PW (8.8 ± 4.8 mA versus 10.5 ± 3.9 mA) (Sanders et al.…”
