Low permanent pacemaker rates following Lotus device implantation for transcatheter aortic valve replacement due to modified implantation protocol.
BACKGROUND Conduction disturbances requiring permanent pacemaker implantation following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are a common problem. Pacemaker implantation rates after TAVR appear to be higher compared to conventional aortic valve replacement. The aim of this study was to analyze whether a high annulus implantation conveys the benefit of a decreased rate of permanent pace...
متن کاملThe Natural History of Trifascicular Disease Following Permanent Pacemaker Implantation
Seventy-two patients with trifascicular disease were followed for an average of40 months following permanent pacemaker insertion. The indications for pacemaker insertion were either electrocardiographic evidence of complete heart block with a wide QRS escape complex or a pattern of bifascicular block with either periods of Mobitz type II atrioventricular (A-V) block or a documented history of s...
متن کاملLate complications following permanent pacemaker implantation or elective unit replacement.
OBJECTIVE To determine the rate of late complications following first implantation or elective unit replacement of a permanent pacemaker system. DESIGN Analysis of pacemaker data and complications prospectively acquired on a computerised database. Complications were studied over an 11 year period from January 1984 to December 1994. SETTING Tertiary referral cardiothoracic centre. PATIENTS...
متن کاملContralateral pneumothorax after cardiac pacemaker implantation
We report a case of a 73-year-old man, who was scheduled for elective dual chamber pacemaker implantation because of paroxysmal second-degree atrioventricular block. The pacemaker pocket was located in the left in-fraclavicular fossa. An active fixation ventricular lead was implanted into the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) through the left cephalic vein venesection, while another active...
متن کاملAppropriateness of sling immobilization to prevent lead displacement after pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation.
After pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (pacemaker/ICD) implantation, patients are often required to immobilize the affected arm with a sling to minimize the risk of lead displacement. We examined whether performing a resistive range-of-motion exercise protocol after pacemaker/ICD surgery would result in lead displacement and, therefore, whether sling immobilization and activity ...
