متن کاملRoutine chest radiography after permanent pacemaker implantation: is it necessary?
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Chest radiographs (CXRs) are performed routinely after permanent pacemaker implantation to identify pacemaker lead position and exclude pneumothorax. We assessed the clinical value and need for this procedure. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of pacemaker data and CXRs following permanent pacemaker insertion between December 2002 and February 2004. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pos...
