Troubleshooting pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to provide an update on stored diagnostic information furnished by new model pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). This information provides crucial information about both device function and arrhythmias discovered with device interrogation and is invaluable when troubleshooting problems with devices. RECENT FINDINGS The...
متن کاملImplantable cardiac pacemakers.
Since implantable artificial cardiac pacemakers were first produced in Sweden and the United States in 1958, there has been continual improvement in manufacturing techniques, and reliability ofmodem apparatus has increased to the extent that pacing is generally accepted as the treatment of choice for a high proportion of patients with complete heart block.

متن کاملManagement of Cardiac Pacemakers in a Pregnant Patient
Introduction: Despite the increasing use of permanent cardiac pacemakers in a younger patient population, there are little data related to pregnancy. We present our experience in managing a pregnant patient with a pre-existing pacemaker and review the existing literature to establish management guidelines. Case: A 27-year-old G1 P0 presented for prenatal care in the first trimester of pregnancy...
متن کاملRadioisotope Powered Cardiac Pacemakers.
Over 100,000 implantable cardiac pacemakers are currently being used to rehabilitate patients with heart block. The chemical batteries powering these pacemakers usually fail within a few years. A variety of nuclear batteries with the potential of providing long-lived (10-20 years) pacemaker power, are under development. This paper reviews the status of this development. Nuclear powered pacemake...
