Pregnancy with an Artificial Pacemaker
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1987Complete heart block in pregnancy is not a common encounter. The first case was reported in 1914 by Nanta and today some 100 cases are documented. Heart block may be congenital or acquired secondary to cardiac surgery, rheumatic heart disease, or infective disorders.

ARTIFICIAL CARDIAC PACEMAKERS.
Journal of the Medical Association of Georgia, 1996Nine 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.

Atrial natriuretic peptide with artificial pacemakers
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1987Abstract Accumulating evidence indicates that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a circulating hormone in humans. 1–4 Plasma levels of ANP increase in patients with various heart diseases such as paroxysmal atrial arrhythmias 2 and congestive heart failure.

The Vectorcardiographic Findings in Patients with Artificial Pacemakers
Diseases of the Chest, 1968SUMMARY The vectorcardiographic findings in 20 cases with artificial pacemakers (intravenous or implanted) are presented. In patients with implanted pacemakers, the vectorcardiogram displays two major patterns: (a) the main QRS loop is directed to the right, anteriorly and inferiorly; (b) the QRS loop is located mainly in the right posterosuperior ...

Radiotherapy to patients with artificial cardiac pacemakers
Cancer Treatment Reviews, 2005The 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.

Modern Pacemakers: Implantable Artificial Intelligence?
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1988For over twenty years computer programs have been written for applications in cardiology. Approximately one decode ago the first Expert Systems using knowledge on cardiology were built. The use of Expert System shells enabled a breakthrough. Many systems were developed, each covering a small part of cardiology.

Ventricular arrhythmias in a patient with artificial pacemakers
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1967Abstract The case of a patient is reported whose implanted pacemaker manifested different mal-functions, including the development of ventricular premature beats, tachycardia and fibrillation. The ventricular premature beats were satisfactorily controlled when the catheter pacemaker was turned off and the heart was paced only by the internal ...

Minerva medica, 1977
The new generation of pacemakers satisfy three basic requirements; histocompatibility, small size, and long life. Resins have been abandoned in favour of titanium cases. These are completely sealed and there is no risk of infiltration or histotoxicity. In addition, the employment of low consumption circuits and new sources of energy, especially lithium,

Depression of artificial pacemakers by extraneous impulses
American Heart Journal, 1967Abstract Analysis of iatrogenic electrical arrhythmias serves to validate the assumptions postulated through the study of clinical electrocardiograms. Other disorders of rhythm, without clinical counterpart, have also become apparent. The recently introduced demand pacemaker functions as a pacemaker that is artificial and automatic, yet not ...
