متن کاملPacemaker and defibrillator lead extraction.
Surgically implanted cardiac devices play an important role in the treatment of heart disease. In the 50 years since the first pacemaker was implanted, technology has improved dramatically, and these devices have saved or improved the quality of countless lives. Pacemakers treat slow heart rhythms by increasing the heart rate or by coordinating the heart’s contraction for some heart failure pat...
متن کاملImplantable Cardiac Defibrillator Lead Failure and Management.
The implantable-cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) lead is the most vulnerable component of the ICD system. Despite advanced engineering design, sophisticated manufacturing techniques, and extensive bench, pre-clinical, and clinical testing, lead failure (LF) remains the Achilles' heel of the ICD system. ICD LF has a broad range of adverse outcomes, ranging from intermittent inappropriate pacing ...
متن کاملDefibrillator lead dislocation after manual lumbar traction
We report a 63-year-old patient with prior coronary artery bypass surgery and recent history of recurrent hospital admissions for refractory heart failure because of ischemic cardiomyopathy and sustained ventricular tachycardia. The patient underwent ICD implantation through left subclavian vein approach (Medtronic, single chamber, model-Maximo II VR, D284VRC, with 6947 ventricular active fixat...
