Electroconvulsive therapy in patients with pacemakers.

Abstract

A patient with an R-wave inhibited permanent pacemaker required electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Possible interference by this therapy with pacer functioning through external interference or internal interference by inhibitory myopotentials was eliminated by temporary conversion to fixed rate pacing before ECT.
