| Abstract
|
:
|
After more than a decade of successful application of cardiac pace- makers in the therapy of cardiac rhythm disorders, technological and clinical experience has reached a level, at which a technical survey of this field should be of general interest and might promote the further improvement of pace- maker therapy.
