Pediatric Pacing

Noninvasive pacing of pediatric patients is performed in an identical manner to adult pacing.
Smaller size pediatric therapy electrodes are available for patients weighing less than 33 lbs/15
kg. If it is necessary to pace for more than 30 minutes, periodic inspection of the underlying
skin is strongly advised. Carefully follow all instructions on electrode packaging.
