Pacemaker dependency after pacemaker implantation.
BACKGROUND Pacemaker dependency (PD) can be defined as the risk of serious injury or death from sudden pacemaker failure, an event more dangerous than progressive rate decrease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of PD during long-term follow-up after pacing system implantation. METHODS AND RESULTS The study included 3638 patients (mean age 65.3 +/- 10.2 years). Indications f...
متن کاملPatient and pacemaker survival after pacemaker implantation.
One hundred thirty patients have had 244 pacemakers of five types implanted at Presbyterian-St. Luke’s Hospital in the past eight years. There has been I 0.50 probabilIty of successful unit function at only 12 months with epicardial units. All transvenous units used have had a 0.50 probabilIty of unit success at more than 17 months. This fact, combined with the lower frequency of early death wi...
متن کاملIntra-diaphragmatic pacemaker implantation in very low weight premature neonate.
Implantation of a pacemaker (PM) in very low weight premature neonates can be a challenging procedure because of the actual dimension of generators. Ideal placement of the PM is still controversial. We describe a technique of intra-diaphragmatic PM implantation in a 1.3 kg neonate.
متن کاملDiaphragmatic Pacemaker
The diaphragm is a major respiratory muscle and plays an integral part in normal respiration. It is supplied by the phrenic nerve, which originates mainly from the fourth cervical nerve, but also receives contribution from the third and fifth cervical nerves. The phrenic nerve contains sensory, motor, and sympathetic nerve fibers, and it supplies motor supply to the diaphragm and sensory supply...
متن کاملTransient paralysis after robotic prostatectomy
Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LARP) has been accepted as first line therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer. Complications have been low and outcomes are comparable to that of open surgery with potential benefits including shorter hospital stay, less pain and quicker return to normal activity. Unexplained paralysis following LARP is a rare entity with no reported cases in the cur...
