Marked ST‐segment elevation during permanent pacemaker implantation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Some acute complications are known during permanent pacemaker implantation such as pneumothorax, lead perforation, lead dislodgement, and hemorrhage. ST-segment elevation in electrocardiogram during implantation is rare, but it might indicate critical complication like myocardial ischemia or ventricular perforation. Physicians should pay attention about ST-segment change during pacemaker implantation.

Marked troponin elevation after implantation of a permanent antibradycardia pacemaker.
INTRODUCTION Transvenous insertion of endocardial leads for permanent pacing is often accompanied by minor myocardial damage, detected thanks to the high sensitivity of cardiac troponins. It is unknown whether higher troponin levels, commensurate with more severe myocardial damage, can be encountered after implantation procedures. METHODS Over a 3-year period, 283 patients underwent an implan...
متن کامل[Female sex is inversely and independently associated with marked ST-segment elevation. A study in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction and early admission].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES In patients with acute myocardial infarction, a number of variables in the initial ECG are useful prognostic indicators. The presence of ST-segment elevation, however, usually indicates the need for reperfusion therapy. The aims of this study were to investigate sex differences in the ECGs of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to look for a ...
متن کاملPeriprocedural cardiac troponin elevation: a potential indicator of enhanced ventricular threshold in permanent pacemaker recipients
Background and aim: Permanent cardiac pacing is the most efficient treatment for patients with symptomatic bradycardia and high-degree atrioventricular (AV) block. For effective pacing, sensing and pacemaker battery longevity; ventricular pacing threshold (VPT) levels, lead impedance levels and Rwave amplitude levels must be desirable. We aimed to search the association between elevated serum t...

BACKGROUND Implantation of drug-eluting stents (DES) limits the rate of coronary restenosis in most patients with coronary artery disease, but data are scarce with regard to their use in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction and in connection with distal protection of the microvascular perfusion during primary percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS AND RESULTS We rando...
