Pacemaker allergy

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, 2017
Allergic complications following pacemaker insertion are rare. However, when they do occur, they usually mimic pacemaker infection, which may lead to multiple device replacements and an increased burden of morbidity. Reactions can take the form of dermatitis localized in the area above implantation, and, uncommonly, generalized or remote site ...

Predicting Coronary Occlusion Risk during Redo‐TAVR at First TAVR: Asymmetric Calcification Causes Failure

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Predicting coronary artery occlusion due to sinus sequestration (SS) during a second transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) procedure using pre‐procedural computed tomography (CT) after the first TAV replacement (TAVR) is underreported.

Intra‐Annular Versus Supra‐Annular Self‐Expanding Valves for Valve‐in‐Valve TAVR

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A limitation of Valve‐in‐Valve (VIV) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is patient‐prosthesis mismatch (PPM), which is associated with worse quality of life and heart failure hospitalizations. As such, strategies to avoid PPM are desired. We compared the clinical and hemodynamic results of VIV TAVR with intra‐annular self‐

The Verification of Co‐Axiality of the Three Self‐Expanding Transcatheter Aortic Valve Systems According to the Difference in Shaft Spine

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...

WHICH PACEMAKER?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, 1991
INTRODUCTION The first fully implantable cardiac pacemaker was inserted by Elmqvist and Senning in 19591 into an electrical engineer suffering from complete atrioventricular (AV) block. He is still alive today. Since then, and more specifically in the last decade, cardiac pacing has been transformed by technological innovation, and has resulted in ...

Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves in Low‐Flow, Low‐Gradient Aortic Stenosis: Does Valve Type Matter?

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The optimal choice between balloon‐expandable (BE) and self‐expanding (SE) transcatheter heart valves (THVs) in patients with low‐flow low‐gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains unclear.

Concealed malfunction of the temporary pacemaker

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2006
The 12-lead ECG shows sequential atrial and ventricular pacing (Figure 1A). A tracing, obtained simultaneously during pacemaker interrogation, disclosed pacemaker functioning as VDD mode (Figure 1B).

Unusual Case of Colonized Pacemaker Lead Presenting with Endocarditis, Hemoptysis and Tricuspid Valve Stenosis

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2011
The present report is the first to describe a case of hemoptysis caused by an endocardial pacemaker lead. In addition, the patient presented with endocarditis and tricuspid valve stenosis.

Cardiac magnetic resonance in a patient with MRI-conditional pacemaker

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2013
An implanted pacemaker is generally considered a contraindication for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The increasing number of indications for MRI and the rising prevalence of implanted cardiac pacemakers have prompted the recent development of MRI ...

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.
