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 ...
To cite: Orsborne C, Morris GM, Brown BD. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014206621 DESCRIPTION A 75-year-old man attended a yearly pacemaker check. His VVIR device was inserted in 2008 for atrial fibrillation with a slow ventricular rate. He subsequently developed ischaemic cardiomyopathy, severely impaired left ventricular (LV) function and unde...
There are more than 200,000 Canadians living with permanent pacemakers or implantable defibrillators, many of whom will require surgery or invasive procedures each year. They face potential hazards when undergoing surgery; however, with appropriate planning and education of operating room personnel, adverse device-related outcomes should be rare. This joint position statement from the Canadian ...
BACKGROUND Magnetic fields may potentially interfere with the function of cardiovascular implantable electronic devices. Sterile magnetic drapes used to hold surgical instruments are often placed on the patient's thorax, and they are likely to interfere with the function of these devices. METHODS Thirty patients were recruited to compare a new prototype surgical magnetic drape (LT10G™ by Meno...
AIM This study seeks to identify the optimal management strategy for patients with syncope in the context of bifascicular block and preserved left ventricular systolic function. METHODS AND RESULTS This multicentre, randomized, open label, parallel group pragmatic randomized trial will test the hypothesis that a strategy of empiric permanent pacemaker implantation in patients with syncope and...
We present the first documented case of a Candida glabrata infection on the retained lead of a cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) in an immunosuppressed heart transplant recipient. This is the first documented case of a redo upper mini-sternotomy approach for a lead removal and innominate vein reconstruction with bovine patch. The patient is a 55 year-old male with non-ischemic...
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has unparalleled soft-tissue imaging capabilities. The presence of devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), however, was historically considered a contraindication to MR imaging. We summarize the potential hazards of the device-MR environment interaction, and present updated information regarding in vitro and in vivo experime...
