Low voltage ECG as a diagnostic criterion of postcanulation pneumothorax after pacemaker implantation

https://doi.org/10.35336/VA-2020-4-42-45

Abstract

A case of post-puncture pneumothorax is presented, which complicated the pacemaker implantation, proceeding with an unclear clinical picture that was revealed solely due to a decrease in the voltage of the postoperative electrocardiogram.
