[Transesophageal electric atrial stimulation as an electro- pharmacological method of treatment of supraventricular tachycardia].

From 1985 to 1988 the authors performed 299 procedures of transesophageal atrial pacing in 162 patients with hyperkinetic supraventricular arrhythmias. The pacing abolition of atrial flutter had been mainly applied with an invasive technique. The employment of transesophageal atrial pacing received its large development, but simplified this, the probability of abolishing supraventricular tachycardia becoming lower.
