Safe and Stable Temporary Biventricular Pacing After Cardiac Reoperations
- Technology Benefits
- Relative to other pacing technologies, this invention affords: • Cardiac pacing in patients undergoing repeat surgery • Reduced cost due to adaptation of typical components utilized in permanent cardiac pacing • Safer and more reliable implantation of pacemakers with minimal soft tissue perforation • A high degree of modularity and flexibility in pacing device design for each individual
- Technology Application
- This technology facilitates: • Temporary cardiac pacing in high-risk patients after surgery • Routine implantation of devices for permanent cardiac pacing • Insertion of optical probes and monitoring devices into other organs
- Detailed Technology Description
- This invention describes new equipment and an improved methodology for providing temporary post-surgical biventricular heart pacing. Patients are implanted with leads designed and approved for permanent pacing within the venous system of the heart th...
