Permanent pacemaker requirement after concomitant surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation.
In their recent review of ablation options for atrial fibrillation, Pinho-Gomes et al. [1] omitted permanent pacemaker requirement as a complication of surgical ablation. In their series of 594 patients undergoing concomitant surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation, of whom 6.9% required permanent pacemakers postoperatively, Pecha et al. [2] identified biatrial lesion sets as a statistically s...
متن کاملSevere symptomatic tricuspid valve regurgitation due to permanent pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads.
OBJECTIVES We report a series of patients with severe tricuspid valve regurgitation due to a permanent pacemaker (PPM) or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) lead. BACKGROUND Severe tricuspid regurgitation caused by a PPM or ICD lead is an under-recognized but treatable etiology of severe right heart failure. METHODS We reviewed the records of 41 patients who underwent tricuspid va...
متن کاملSubcutaneous emphysema due to compressed air.
Compressed-air tools are of interest by reason of their vibratory action which affects the peripheral circulation of the fingers. Raynaud's syndrome in riveters, pneumatic chisellers and drillers is well known. The harmful effect is almost certainly due to vibration, although cooling of the hands may occur with some pneumatic tools and may be a contributory factor.* Apart from using compressed ...

متن کاملTemporary severe bradycardia due to pacemaker programming
A 67-year-old male patient received a pacemaker for syncope. His parameters at check-up were: P/R amplitude 2.8/11 mV and atrial/ventricular threshold 0.875/0.625. The pacemaker was programmed as follows: lower rate 60 bpm; upper tracking rate 130 bpm; sensed AV interval 120 ms; paced AV interval 50 ms; atrial/ventricular sensitivity 0.5/5.6 mV, and atrial/ventricular output 2/2 V. Due to synco...
