Types of pacemakers and their complications.
1. Implantable pulse generators with endocardial or myocardial electrodes for long-term or permanent use. 2. External, miniaturized, transistorized, patientportable, battery-powered, pulse generators with exteriorized electrodes for temporary transvenous endocardial or transthoracic myocardial pacing. 3. Console batteryor AC-powered cardiovertors, defibrillators, or monitors with high-current e...
متن کاملHyperkalemia-induced complete heart block
Background: Potassium, as an extracellular ion, plays an important role in the electrophysiologic function of the myocardium and any change in extracellular concentration of this ion might have a marked impression upon myocyte electrophysiologic gain. High serum potassium levels are thought to impair pulse conduction in Purkinje fibers and ventricles more than that in the Atrio...
متن کاملLong-term prognosis after acute anterior infarction with atrioventricular block.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the need for permanent pacing in patients who have survived the effects of anterior myocardial infarction with complete heart block and have returned to sinus rhythm but who are left with impairment of intraventricular conduction. We have reviewed 52 patients with complete heart block complicating recent anterior myocardial infarction. Temporary pacing ...
متن کاملOutcomes of long-term endocavitary cardiac pacing in children
Background: The development of neonatal cardiology and cardiac surgery, as well as the earlier diagnosis of congenital defects, arrhythmias, and cardiac conduction disorders, contributed to the systematic increase of the number of children and young adults undergoing electrophysiological procedures, as well as to the reduction of the age at which these procedures are performed. Children requiri...
متن کاملTranshepatic permanent pacing in a child with complex cyanotic heart disease after total cavo pulmonary shunt (Kawashima repair)
Complex cyanotic congenital heart diseases with left isomerism are sometimes associated with atrioventricular nodal conduction disturbances that may need permanent pacing. Surgical palliation in such anatomy connecting the superior vena cava to the pulmonary artery precludes a transvenous access for an endocardial pacing lead to the ventricles. Epicardial leads in these patients fail if the pac...
