[Pilot experience with implantations of 100 continuous atrial pacemakers in sick sinus syndrome: advances, problems, prospects].

Long-term results of continuous atrial pacing were assessed in 100 patients with sick sinus syndrome followed up for 6 years. Implantation of the pacemaker was performed via extrapleural and extraperitoneal approaches using serial myocardial non-suture electrodes. Antiarrhythmic efficacy of atrial pacing was found insufficient. Continuous atrial pacing proved advantageous only in Wenckebach point at 100-120 per min.

Follow-Up Studies

[Characteristics of the clinical picture of ischemic heart disease complicated by sick sinus syndrome and problems of the prognosis of syncopal states].

Combined investigation of 86 coronary patients, including 18 patients with the sick-sinus syndrome, demonstrated the clinical pattern of the disease. The contribution of atrial systole to cardiac output was assessed in patients with sick-sinus syndrome. A basic rule is proposed for the prediction of syncopal states associated with the sick-sinus syndrome in coronary patients, its accuracy reaching 94.6%.

Coronary Disease

[Immunologic study of the cellular components of pseudomonas pyocyaneus. II. Extraction of purified lipopolysaccharide, its characteristics and elaboration of an erythrocyte O-diagnosticum].

The authors elaborated a method of obtaining a highly active lipopolysaccharide preparation from the cell membranes of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa whose sensitizing activity exceeded that of the polysaccharide isolated from the intact microbial cells almost 20 times. The optimal sensitizing dose of the preparation constituted 15 micron/ml. An erythrocytic diagnostic agent permitting to determine the antibodies in the sera of patients with the purulent-in flammatory diseases caused by Ps. aeruginosa was prepared on the basis of the purified lipo polysaccharide. A definite dependence of the hemagglutinin titres on the severity of the affection and the degree of the purulent-inflammatory process was revealed.
