Electronic pacing is now the accepted therapy for patients with symptomatic slow ventricular heart rates. Pacing may be temporary or permanent, epicardial or endocardial, fixed, synchronous or demand. The choice of pacing mode is dictated by the clinical status of the patient, his progress during temporary pacing, and the presence or absence of competitive rhythm.

对于有症状的缓慢心室率患者，电子起搏现已成为公认的治疗方法。起搏可分为临时起搏或永久起搏、心外膜起搏或心内膜起搏、固定频率起搏、同步起搏或按需起搏。起搏模式的选择取决于患者的临床状况、临时起搏期间的病情进展以及是否存在竞争性节律。
