Erosive Pressure Dermatitis Associated with Cardiac Pacemaker
Erosive dermatitis is a skin reaction associated with implantable cardiac devices (ie, pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators). We report a 65-year-old man with a history of several cerebrovascular attacks who developed an erythematous crusted erosive patch over the pacemaker site after implantation of two subsequent pacemakers. We suggest that physical irritation may be a trigger factor fo...
متن کاملAn intragastric cardiac pacemaker.
A 62-year-old housewife was seen in May 1967 with attacks of dizziness and loss of consciousness. A diagnosis of complete heart block with Stokes-Adams syncope was made. Anterolateral thoracotomy was performed and myocardial electrodes were inserted over the left ventricle and were connected to a Devices fixed-rate pacemaker, inserted in the rectus sheath posterior to the rectus muscle. Postope...
متن کاملTrends in Cardiac Pacemaker Batteries
Batteries used in Implantable cardiac pacemakers-present unique challenges to their developers and manufacturers in terms of high levels of safety and reliability. In addition, the batteries must have longevity to avoid frequent replacements. Technological advances in leads/electrodes have reduced energy requirements by two orders of magnitude. Micro-electronics advances sharply reduce internal...
متن کاملPacemaker leads and cardiac perforation
This case series highlights the rare but potentially life threatening complication of ventricular perforation caused by pacemaker leads and discusses appropriate investigations and management strategies.
متن کاملPacemaker Following Adult Cardiac Surgery
The postoperative cardiac surgery status often determines a systolic and diastolic dysfunction, thus inducing the dependence of atrial contribution to ventricle telediastolic filling and a physiological dynamic contraction and so as to avoid ventricular segmental dyssynergia. The heart rate also plays an important role in maintaining an adequate cardiac output. Postsurgical pacemaker stimulatio...
