[The pacemaker and the practitioner (author's transl)]. 1978

A Benzoni, and G Risica, and G Zagatti, and G Caturelli

Considering the increasing importance of cardiac pacing (800-1000 pacemaker patients per million population according to most recent evaluations), the Authors made an investigation on a sample of 100 general practitioners, to evaluate their knowledge on pacemakers. These physicians have been questioned following a form, which resumed the most important problems that can arise in patients with cardiac pacemakers. The conclusion is that the practitioner has little knowledge on cardiac pacing and that he is not able to handle this sort of patient.
