Pregnancy with an Artificial Pacemaker

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1987
Complete 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

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.

Nursing the Patient With an Artificial Pacemaker

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 2022
Editor's note: From its first issue in 1900 through to the present day, AJN has unparalleled archives detailing nurses' work and lives over more than a century. These articles not only chronicle nursing's growth as a profession within the context of the events of the day, but also reveal prevailing societal attitudes about ...

Atrial natriuretic peptide with artificial pacemakers

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1987
Abstract 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.

Ventricular arrhythmias in a patient with artificial pacemakers

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1967
Abstract 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 ...

Modern Pacemakers: Implantable Artificial Intelligence?

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1988
For 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.

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.

Simulation and rectification of an artificial pacemaker

2013 1st International Conference on Communications, Signal Processing, and their Applications (ICCSPA), 2013
The simulation of an artificial pacemaker is presented in terms of digital waveforms which represent the analogous heartbeat and its verification using Verilog coding. The output will be in terms of any rectifications required in the simulation and its final results will conclude in a regular heartbeat with pacing if required.

The Artificial Pacemaker: A Life-Giver

2021
Since the advent of electricity, it was postulated that control of the heartbeat could potentially save countless lives. But artificially pacing the heart remained a dream for most of human history. In this chapter, the author discusses the contributions of inventors in the field of cardiac pacing from the mid-twentieth century to today.

The Vectorcardiographic Findings in Patients with Artificial Pacemakers

Diseases of the Chest, 1968
SUMMARY 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 ...
