2. Pacemaker failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_failure

   Failure of a pacemaker is defined by the requirement of repeat surgical pacemaker-related procedures after the initial implantation. Most implanted pacemakers are dual chambered and have two leads, causing the implantation time to take longer because of this more complicated pacemaker system.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

   No specific set of criteria has been developed for diagnosis of pacemaker syndrome. Most of the signs and symptoms of pacemaker syndrome are nonspecific, and many are prevalent in the elderly population at baseline. In the lab, pacemaker interrogation plays a crucial role in determining if the pacemaker mode had any contribution to symptoms. [5 ...

4. Twiddler's syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twiddler's_syndrome

   Twiddler's syndrome is a malfunction of a pacemaker due to manipulation of the device and the consequent dislodging of the leads from their intended location. As the leads move, they stop pacing the heart and can cause strange symptoms such as phrenic nerve stimulation resulting in abdominal pulsing or brachial plexus stimulation resulting in rhythmic arm twitching.

   Failure of a dental implant is often related to the failure of the implant to osseointegrate correctly with the bone, or vice versa. [4] A dental implant is considered to be a failure if it is lost, mobile or shows peri-implant (around the implant) bone loss of greater than 1.0 mm in the first year and greater than 0.2 mm a year after.
