Anesthetic management of the patient with a pacemaker.
Anesthetic care depends on the patient underlying condition. Local anesthesia is preferable. Do not use heavy sedation. If you use GA avoid suxamethonium. If the PM was recently implanted, avoid N2O. During operation change to fixed-rate. Precautions for electrocautery. Post-operatively inform cardiologist to readjust the PM.
