Allergic reaction to mint leads to asthma
Respiratory and cutaneous adverse reactions to mint can result from several different mechanisms including IgE-mediated hypersensitivity, delayed-type hypersensitivity (contact dermatitis), and nonimmunologic histamine release. Reactions to cross-reacting plants of the Labiatae family, such as oregano and thyme, as well as to the chemical turpentine, may clue the clinician in on the diagnosis o...
متن کاملDo implanted pacemaker leads and ICD leads cause metal-related artifact in cardiac PET/CT?
UNLABELLED Artifacts related to metallic implants are an established limitation of CT-based attenuation correction (CT-AC) in PET/CT. However, the impact of metallic components of pacemaker leads and implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) leads on the accuracy of cardiac PET has not been evaluated. The goal of this study was to investigate the magnitude of artifacts related to pacing and ...
متن کاملHistopathological study of tissue reaction to pacemaker electrodes implanted in the endocardium.
Limited information is available about histopathological reactions to the implanted endocardial electrodes of pacemakers (PM). Gross anatomic and histologic studies of tissue reactions to PM electrodes were made in thirteen autopsy cases (nine men and four women, ages 25 approximately 89 years, mean age 71.8) who died two months to twenty-one years after PM implantation. Nine of them had comple...
متن کاملDeterminants of procedural outcome of chronically implanted pacemaker and defibrillator leads using the Excimer laser sheath.
The extraction of chronic pacemaker and internal cardioverter defibrillator leads is performed for a number of reasons including chronic infection, lead dysfunction, and venous obstruction. Traditionally leads were removed by traction which is associated with a high incidence of failure and serious complications. This has led to the introduction of laser lead extraction (LLE) which is a safe an...
متن کاملInitial experience in the extraction of chronically implanted pacemaker leads using the Excimer laser sheath.
OBJECTIVE To assess the safety and efficiency of the Excimer laser sheath in extracting chronically implanted pacemaker leads. PATIENTS Eight patients were studied (one female, mean age 62 years, range 34 to 77) with 17 pacemaker leads (five atrial, 10 ventricular, two implantable defibrillator). The mean implantation time was 65 months (range 23 to 188). The indications for lead extraction w...
