This is the first prospective, randomized study that included patient outcomes related to function and infection with reconditioned devices, with follow-up information collected up to 90 days after ...

This device did not have to be removed, and the infection cleared. Five patients with new pacemakers required surgery to move or replace the device's leads after pacemaker implantation ...

The trial assessed outcomes in patients evaluated in the hospital at two weeks after pacemakers were implanted and for up to 90 days afterward. Five cases of infection at the implant site (device ...

Pacemakers reconditioned with an FDA-approved protocol worked as well as new devices in a study of nearly 300 people in seven low- and middle-income countries. The study compared the function and ...

DUBAI, 12th November, 2024 (WAM) - Dr. Mohamed Magdi, Consultant and Head of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Department at Al Qassimi Hospital in Sharjah performed Europe's first implantation of a ...

Seventy-two patients (1.4%) required permanent pacemaker implantation. Indications for PPM implantation included: (i) complete atrioventricular (AV) block in 59; of these, 35 were immediate in ...

Sharjah24 - WAM: Dr. Mohamed Magdi, Consultant and Head of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Department at Al Qassimi Hospital in Sharjah performed Europe’s first implantation of a single-chamber, ...

Hip implants with a delta ceramic or oxidized zirconium head and highly crosslinked polyethylene liner or cup had the lowest risk of revision during the 15 years after surgery, a new study has found.

Orthopedic supply companies have begun to market directly to consumers. Their advertisements might make you believe their knee replacement implant is "the best" and worthy of considering above all ...

However, the incidence of TR following implantation of leadless pacemakers versus dual-chamber pacemakers (DC-PPM) is not well described. Hypothesis: Micra leadless pacemakers will have a lower ...

Subsequently, a left bundle area lead was placed. Discussion: Although uncommon, extraction of the tined leadless pacemaker (Micra) may be indicated at times. As rates of implantation continue to ...
