Nine-year Experience during 1973-1982 with 1,060 Pacemakers in 805 Patients.
Our experience with over one-thousand pacemaker implantations resulting in almost 28.000 patient pacing months is reviewed. Data are presented regarding changing indications for pacing, experience with numerous pacemaker types, patient survival, comparative mortality of sick sinus syndrome and compl...

Data are presented regarding changing indications for pacing, experience with numerous pacemaker types, patient survival, comparative mortality of sick sinus syndrome and complete heart block, and telephone surveillance. Consistent with some previous reports, there were high one- and two-year post-implant mortality rates, and advanced age at implant was associated with decreased survival. Males had a significantly higher mortality rate. The period reported covers the transition from utilization of mercury-zinc batteries to lithium power cells and other new technology; significant differences were observed in device reliability and patient mortality when comparing these eras. Certain patients evidenced disparate survivals, the most notable difference being seen in those who received their primary implants prior to 1976 and subsequent implants of more modern units. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
