Abstract
Abstract
Background
Electrical storm (ES) is a clinical emergency characterized by multiple malignant ventricular arrhythmias or ICD discharges within 24 h, requiring early rational management.
Case presentation
We report a 55-year-old man who underwent aortic valve replacement experienced recurrent ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation. A temporary permanent pacemaker with the EnSite system was implanted, and significant inhibition of the electrical storm, attributed to the atrial overdrive pacing, ensued.
Conclusions
In emergency regarding an electrical storm, the bedside temporary permanent pacemaker implantation with the EnSite system is concluded to be feasible and safe.
