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 کاملPermanent and temporary pacemaker implantation after orthotopic heart transplantation.
PURPOSE:To determine the indication for and incidence and evolution of temporary and permanent pacemaker implantation in cardiac transplant recipients. METHODS: A retrospective review of 114 patients who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation InCor (Heart Institute USP BR) between March 1985 and May 1993. We studied the incidence of and indication for temporary pacing, the relationship betw...
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...
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 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...
