Cardiac arrhythmias related to artificial pacemakers

open access: closedJournal of Electrocardiology, 1971
Summary Various cardiac arrhythmias related to artificial pacemakers are described in detail, and representative electrocardiographic illustrations are presented. The importance of recognizing malfunction of various pacemakers has been emphasized. An early manifestation of malfunction should be suspected even when the pre-set rate is altered by only ...

Cardiac natriuretic peptide hormones during artificial cardiac pacemaker stimulation and left heart catheterization

open access: closedThe Clinical Investigator, 1992
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is synthesized and released predominantly in the ventricular myocardium whereas atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is produced mainly in the atria. This study evaluated whether artificial pacemaker stimulation or left heart catheterization results in specific changes in BNP and ANP plasma levels. Both BNP and ANP responded

Artificial Cardiac Pacemakers

New England Journal of Medicine, 1970
Complications of Pacing Despite nearly a decade of experience with temporary and permanent pacemaker systems, complications and failures are the rule rather than the exception.

ARTIFICIAL CARDIAC PACEMAKERS.

Journal of the Medical Association of Georgia, 1996
Nine patients with complete heart block and Stokes-Adams disease were treated with subcutaneously implanted, fixed-rate, artificial cardiac pacemakers. All of these patients were refractory to medical treatment and confined to bed by the frequency of their attacks.

Radiotherapy to patients with artificial cardiac pacemakers

Cancer Treatment Reviews, 2005
The in vitro studies show that the modern cardiac pacemakers utilising the complementary metal-oxide semi-conductor (CMOS) circuitry can be adversely affected by therapeutic radiation. However, the published clinical data are sparse regarding the safety of radiotherapy delivery to patients with artificial pacemakers.

Artificial cardiac pacemaker

2017 Third International Conference on Science Technology Engineering & Management (ICONSTEM), 2017
An artificial cardiac pacemaker is a medical device used for regulating the beating of the heart by using the electrical impulses delivered by the electrodes on contraction of the heart. The pacemaker used at present produces a fixed heart beat and it does not vary according to human activities.

Artificial cardiac pacemakers.

International journal of clinical pharmacology, therapy, and toxicology, 1990
Artificial pacemakers are electronic devices used primarily to control cardiac rate in patients in whom the intrinsic heart rate is inadequate for a normal life style. These devices automatically and rhythmically provide electrical impulses to stimulate the heart.
