Abstract

Temporary pacing is often used when the bradyarrhythmias were unresponsive to medication. The clinical case of hyperkalemic bradycardia, leading to hemodynamic instability and unresponsiveness to atropine, occurred in a 67-year-old female patient with end-stage renal failure on periodic hemodialysis. The patient was conducted transcutaneous temporary pacing (TCP) to stabilize hemodynamics and then combined with emergency hemodialysis to improve hyperkalemia. Transcutaneous temporary pacing is a safe, less invasive approach than transvenous temporary pacing (TVP) that should be considered in emergency situations for the management of bradyarrhythmias due to variable transient causes and reversible.
