Endovascular interventions for central vein stenosis
Central vein stenosis is common because of the placement of venous access and cardiac intravascular devices and compromises vascular access for dialysis. Endovascular intervention with angioplasty and/or stent placement is the preferred approach, but the results are suboptimal and limited. Primary patency after angioplasty alone is poor, but secondary patency can be maintained with repeated ang...
متن کاملRadiation Therapy to Patients with Cardiac Implanted Electronic Devices
There is an increase of the number of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs, like pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators) that require radiotherapy for cancer treatment. Managing such patients has been a great practical and procedural challenge in radiation oncology practice. This editorial will focus on outlining the most important risks of using new techniques of rad...
متن کاملSafety of CMR in patients with cardiac implanted electronic devices
Methods The protocol followed at our institution for MR imaging of CIED patients is as follows: 1) Necessity and absence of an alternative imaging modality; 2) Device-related relative contraindications, including the presence of abandoned leads, pacemaker dependency, and time to lead implant < 6 weeks, with the possibility of the ordering physician to overrule these exclusions. 3) A provider wi...
متن کاملAre electronic cardiac devices still evolving?
OBJECTIVES The goal of this paper is to review some important issues occurring during the past year in Implantable devices. METHODS First cardiac implantable device was proposed to maintain an adequate heart rate, either because the heart's natural pacemaker is not fast enough, or there is a block in the heart's electrical conduction system. During the last forty years, pacemakers have evolve...
متن کاملIs It Safe to Perform Therapeutic Endoscopic Procedures in Patients with Implanted Electronic Cardiac Devices?
As the use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators is increasing, management of those device-wearing patients with electrosurgery has attracted growing attention, not only in the area of gastroenterology, but also in other fields, including dermatology and urology. For gastroenterologists, there have been concerns about el...
