Abstract
From the moment that a permanent pacemaker is implanted in a patient, three types of periodic reviews should be initiated:
-
a)
primary level, under the care of the family physician;
-
b)
secondary level, under supervision of the cardiologist; and
-
c)
third level, in a hospital unit for pacemaker control.
