Simultaneous atrioventricular node ablation and leadless pacemaker implantation☆☆☆
Introduction The ablate-and-pace technique is a well-established method to treat patients with persistent and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation with poor rate control on medical therapy.1 The technique represents a class IIa indication to control heart rates when pharmacologic therapy is insufficient or intolerable.2 As many of these patients are in permanent atrial fibrillation, they frequently r...
متن کاملCombination of a leadless pacemaker and subcutaneous defibrillator: First in-human report
Introduction Although transvenous pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) have long been the standard of care, they are not without significant drawbacks. In recent years, major advances have been achieved in leadless pacemaker technology and entirely subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) systems that obviate intracardiac leads and hence carry the potential to reduce associated complica...
متن کاملRetrieval of the Leadless Cardiac Pacemaker
Leadless cardiac pacemakers (LPs) have emerged as a safe and effective alternative to conventional transvenous pacemakers for patients with an indication for single-chamber ventricular pacing. In 2 prospective studies with intermediate follow-up, leadless pacemakers exhibited high acute implantation success rates and stable pacing performance at 6 months. Despite these promising results, the ab...
متن کاملLeadless pacemaker implantation in a patient with complex congenital heart disease and limited vascular access
Management of rhythm related issues might be particularly challenging in patients with congenital heart disease due to complex anatomy and restricted vascular access. The leadless technology appears a suitable and attractive alternative for this population. We describe a patient with single ventricle physiology who successfully underwent implantation of a leadless pacemaker.
متن کاملImplantable demand pacemaker.
Adams-Stokes seizures can occur in patients with intermittent complete A-V block. The history of a single Adams-Stokes syncopal attack is an indication for intracardiac pacing. Fixed rate pacemakers employed in the presence of intermittent varying degrees of A-V block and sinus rhythm result in recurrent co-acting rhythms of artificial and natural beats (Linenthal and Zoll, 1962). This arrhythm...
