Driving restrictions in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators and pacemakers

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2017
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) improve the survival in patients at risk of sudden cardiac death. However, these patients have an ongoing risk of sudden incapacitation that may cause harm to individuals and others when driving ...

Stable Survival Extrapolation via Transfer Learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The mean survival is the key ingredient of the decision process in several applications, notably in health economic evaluations. It is defined as the area under the complete survival curve, thus necessitating extrapolation of the observed data. This may be achieved in a more stable manner by borrowing long term evidence from registry and demographic ...

Interference Between Cellular Telephones and Implantable Rhythm Devices: A Review on Recent Papers

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2006
Background: Cardiac pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are potentially susceptible to electromagnetic interferences as they have complex circuitry for sensing and communication purposes.

Small metal artifact detection and inpainting in cardiac CT images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Background: Quantification of cardiac motion on pre-treatment CT imaging for stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy patients is difficult due to the presence of image artifacts caused by metal leads of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). New methods are needed to accurately reduce the metal artifacts in already reconstructed CTs to recover ...

The impact of cardiac resynchronization therapy with implantable cardioverter defibrillators on patients with moderate to severe chronic heart failure: A single-arm clinical trial [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Internal Medicine
Background: Patients with moderate to severe chronic heart failure (CHF) are at high risk for cardiac mortality. Cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillators (CRT-D) as a potentially beneficial option can improve the clinical outcomes of such ...
