Cardiac pacing is the delivery of a small electrical current to the heart to stimulate myocardial contraction. External (transcutaneous or percussion) pacing can be established quickly and easily during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). It gives time for the spontaneous recovery of the conduction system or for more definitive treatment to be established, for example, transvenous pacing. This article describes two methods of external pacing.
