INTERNAL CARDIAC PACEMAKERS [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Roentgenology, 1967
There are two main pacemaker systems used in controlling the cardiac rate in Severe heart-block patients: (1) asynchronous, and (2) synchronous or P-wave actuated.These pacemakers transmit current to the electrodes by direct wire or electromagnetic communications.The main techniques of applying the myocardial electrodes to the ventricles are: (1 ...

Conjugated Porphyrin Polymer With Superior Charge Transfer for Photodynamic‐Immunomodulatory Prevention of CIED Infection in Diabetes

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.

Testing of Common Electromagnetic Environments for Risk of Interference with Cardiac Pacemaker Function

open access: yesSafety and Health at Work, 2013
Background: Cardiac pacemakers are known to be susceptible to strong electromagnetic fields (EMFs). This in vivo study investigated occurrence of electromagnetic interference with pacemakers caused by common environmental sources of EMFs. Methods: Eleven

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Cardiomyopathy Induced by Artificial Heart Stimulation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2020
With the advent of cardiac pacemakers more than 60 years ago, the era of artificial cardiac pacing began, which changed the natural history of symptomatic bradycardias, significantly increasing the survival especially of patients with complete ...

Refurbishing Pacemakers: A Viable Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Cardiologists implant permanent pacemakers widely for indications like sick sinus syndrome and complete heart block. The guidelines for such implantations are well established1.

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.
