Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy after Permanent Pacemaker Implantation
A 78-year-old woman presented to our emergency room because of complete atrioventricular block. The patient experienced significant psychophysical stress during pacemaker implantation due to fear of operation. Acute lung edema occurred four hours after permanent pacemaker implantation. Coronary angiography showed no significant coronary artery stenosis and left ventriculography revealed typical...
متن کاملPacemaker 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 کاملMarked troponin elevation after implantation of a permanent antibradycardia pacemaker.
INTRODUCTION Transvenous insertion of endocardial leads for permanent pacing is often accompanied by minor myocardial damage, detected thanks to the high sensitivity of cardiac troponins. It is unknown whether higher troponin levels, commensurate with more severe myocardial damage, can be encountered after implantation procedures. METHODS Over a 3-year period, 283 patients underwent an implan...
متن کاملContralateral pneumothorax after cardiac pacemaker implantation
We report a case of a 73-year-old man, who was scheduled for elective dual chamber pacemaker implantation because of paroxysmal second-degree atrioventricular block. The pacemaker pocket was located in the left in-fraclavicular fossa. An active fixation ventricular lead was implanted into the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) through the left cephalic vein venesection, while another active...
متن کاملTHE ROLE OF PACEMAKER CLINIC IN THE FOLLOW-UP OF PATIENTS WITH PERMANENT PACEMAKERS
The Pacemaker Clinic at Shahid Rajai Cardiovascular Research Center first started operating in August 1992. In its first year of operation, 294 permanent pacemaker patients were studied, allowing an appraisal to be carried out of the clinic's effectiveness in diagnosing and treating early complications. In the final analysis, pacemaker complications were observed in 68 (23%) patients, of wh...
