The condition of the conducting system of the heart and the sinus node recovery time were studied in 27 patients with the cardiac rhythm pathology under consideration. On the grounds of the resultant data the question concerning the implantation of this or that type of pacemaker (operating in a fixed regimen or "on demand") and-the positioning of the fixing electrode in the atria or ventricle was resolved. The advantages and shortcomings of each of the suggested methods for surgical treatment of sick sinus node are discussed.
