2. Pacemaker syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

   Pacemaker syndrome is a condition that represents the clinical consequences of suboptimal atrioventricular (AV) synchrony or AV dyssynchrony, regardless of the pacing mode, after pacemaker implantation. [1] [2] It is an iatrogenic disease—an adverse effect resulting from medical treatment—that is often underdiagnosed.

3. Myocardial infarction complications - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_infarction...

   A myocardial infarction may compromise the function of the heart as a pump for the circulation, a state called heart failure. There are different types of heart failure; left- or right-sided (or bilateral) heart failure may occur depending on the affected part of the heart, and it is a low-output type of failure.

4. Beating heart cadaver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beating_heart_cadaver

   The Catholic church with input from Pope John Paul II, identified transplantation from beating heart cadavers or living subjects as acceptable if there are no added risks to the donor. [21] This has been widely debated in Japan where the first heart transplant took place in 1968 and the patient died a few months after the procedure. [22]

5. Acute decompensated heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_decompensated_heart...

   Is a procedure used to improve the symptoms of coronary artery disease (CAD), reduce the damage to the heart muscle after a heart attack, and reduce the risk of death in some patients. [25] A pacemaker is a small device that's placed in the chest or abdomen to help control abnormal heart rhythms. [26]

6. Pacemaker failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_failure

   The magnet can interrupt the pacing and inhibit the output of pacemakers. If MRI must be done, the pacemaker output in some models can be reprogrammed. [7] In February 2011, the FDA approved an MRI-safe pacemaker. [8] Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) procedure is safe for most pacemaker patients, with some reprogramming of the pacing.

7. Cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiomyopathy

   Treatment depends on the type of cardiomyopathy and condition of disease, but may include medication (conservative treatment) or iatrogenic/implanted pacemakers for slow heart rates, defibrillators for those prone to fatal heart rhythms, ventricular assist devices (VADs) for severe heart failure, or catheter ablation for recurring dysrhythmias ...

9. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmogenic_cardiomyopathy

   The disease is a type of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy that primarily involves the right ventricle, though cases of exclusive left ventricular disease have been reported. It is characterized by hypokinetic areas involving the free wall of the ventricle, with fibrofatty replacement of the myocardium, with associated arrhythmias often originating ...
