Patient and pacemaker survival after pacemaker implantation.
One hundred thirty patients have had 244 pacemakers of five types implanted at Presbyterian-St. Luke’s Hospital in the past eight years. There has been I 0.50 probabilIty of successful unit function at only 12 months with epicardial units. All transvenous units used have had a 0.50 probabilIty of unit success at more than 17 months. This fact, combined with the lower frequency of early death wi...
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 کاملInitial experience with a physiological, rate responsive pacemaker.
A new pacemaker that can adapt the heart rate in response to the patient's metabolic requirements has been developed. This pacemaker uses the QT interval as the indicator of physiological demand. Experience in five patients showed the rate response to exercise to be smooth and progressive and to return gradually to the basic paced rate after activity stopped. Physiological rate responsive pacin...
متن کاملFactors Associated with Survival Rate after Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is considered as the most important cause of mortality among men and women throughout the world. This condition causes sudden cardiac arrest in more than half of the cases. To reduce mortality due to this disease, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the determinants of its success are the focus of researchers. Objective: The aim of this study was to det...
متن کاملPacemaker dependency after implantation of electrophysiological devices.
Pacemaker dependency is observed in an appreciable number of chronically paced patients. Although there is no standard definition, pacemaker dependency has a significant impact on the management of patients in several clinical settings. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the available data regarding definition, testing, clinical significance, epidemiology, and mechanisms of ...
