Abstrakt: Indirect oesophageal cardiac pacing evolved from indirect (transcutaneous pacing) and direct (thoracotomy epicardial; transvenous endocardial) approaches to cardiac pacing [1]. Similarly, indirect oesophageal cardioversion and defibrillation (CV and DF) were developed for definitive or ‘rescue' CV and DF, with the latter for failed transcutaneous CV or DF.
