The article "Effect of Bedside Ultrasound‑Guided Versus Fluoroscopy‑Guided Transvenous Cardiac Temporary Pacing in Children with Bradyarrhythmia" offers valuable insights into comparative short-term pacing strategies for pediatric bradyarrhythmias. This letter commends the study for its relevance and potential to improve patient care but highlights several limitations. Notably, the study overlooks the impact of genetic factors on bradyarrhythmias and treatment outcomes, lacks detailed information on the influence of medications, and does not address the cost-effectiveness of the pacing techniques. Future research should address these aspects to enhance the validity and applicability of the findings.
Keywords: Cost-effectiveness; Fluoroscopy-guided pacing; Pediatric bradyarrhythmia; Temporary cardiac pacing; Ultrasound-guided pacing.
