We divided patients into three groups: 1) Patients who underwent concomitant AF ablation along with cardiac surgery (AF ABL); 2) patients with any history of AF undergoing surgery who did not undergo ablation (AF NO ABL); and 3) patients with no history of AF who underwent surgery (NO ...

You also might need a pacemaker if you have AFib andcongestive heart failure. That’s when your heart can’t pump enoughbloodto the rest of your body the way it should. Atrioventricular (AV) Node Ablation Ifmedicationor other treatments haven’t worked, your doctor might recommend this proced...
During pacemaker surgery, which takes a few hours, one or three wires with sensors called electrodes are placed in different chambers of the heart. They are connected with a computerized generator which is connected to the battery. The generator and the battery are placed in the box and slipped...
The objectives of this study were to identify: (1) the indications for pacemaker implantation; (2) the long‐term survival; (3) the percentage of bradyarrhythmias below 50 beats/min persisting for more than 3 months; and (4) the variables predicting persistent bradyarrhythmias following orthotopi...

There is a strong clinical need for percutaneous treatment of patients with myxomatous mitral valve disease and regurgitation as an alternative to ...
Batteries need to be replaced every 5 to 15 years. You'll have minor surgery to switch them. You need to be careful around devices that have strong magnetic fields. They could mess up the pacemaker’s signal. Limit how long you’re around them and try not to get too close. Some of ...
