- Titel:
- Cardiac pacing in a patient with diaphragm pacing for congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (Ondine's curse).
- Abstract:
- Mechanical ventilation support and diaphragm pacing has improved the prognosis of patients with idiopathic congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS; Ondine's curse). However, severe bradyarrhythmias may occur. This report is about a patient who was supplied with a bilateral diaphragm pacing system at early childhood. At the age of 17 years, he experienced multiple syncopes due to sinus nodal arrest, which was successfully treated by the implantation of a dual chamber pacemaker.
