Possibility of performing of a programmed transcutaneous heart stimulation by combining two, easily purchasable noninvasive cardiac stimulators was examined in 4 healthy volunteers. Combining of a SP-5 transesophageal stimulator with a transcutaneous NP-4D stimulator made conduction of the programmed cardiac stimulation possible as well as two undisturbed ECG recordings. The quality of the obtained recordings (surface and transesophageal) made estimation of the retrograde AV conductivity possible. The performed examinations point out to a practical utility of the applied combination of transesophageal and transcutaneous stimulation-for conducting of noninvasive diagnostic heart examination.

D004562	Electrocardiography	Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY.	12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
