Thrombus formation on a defibrillator lead with conductor externalization
A 51 year old man with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy reported non-specific symptoms of muscle aches and shivering at outpatient review. A dual chamber implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) had been inserted seven years previously. Fluoroscopic lead screening had previously demonstrated conductor externalisation (Figure and Video) of a single coil Riata ICD lead (model n...

متن کاملThrombus Formation on Disrupted Plaques
Acute cardiovascular events that usually involve thrombus formation at sites of disrupted atherosclerotic plaques are currently described as atherothrombosis. Thrombosis is a major complication of atherosclerosis and also a rare but serious complication after stent implantation. However, it does not always result in complete thrombotic occlusion with subsequent acute symptomatic events (1). The...
متن کاملImplantable atrial defibrillator with a single-pass dual-electrode lead.
OBJECTIVES We examined the feasibility and efficacy of using a single-pass, dual-electrode (Solo) lead for atrial fibrillation (AF) detection and defibrillation. BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety of an implantable atrial defibrillator (IAD) has been extensively studied; however, separate right atrial (RA) and coronary sinus (CS) defibrillation leads are used for the present system. METHODS...
متن کاملImplantable cardioverter-defibrillator lead performance.
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) have revolutionized the treatment of patients at risk for sudden cardiac death. In the nearly 3 decades since the first human ICD implant,1 millions of devices have been implanted worldwide and innumerable lives have been saved. Successful resuscitation of a potentially lethal ventricular arrhythmia by an ICD system depends on successful arrhythmia...
