Wireless video capsule endoscopy (CE) is a modern diagnostic tool. Because of its use of digital radiofrequency, it is still relatively contraindicated in patients with implanted cardiac devices. We report the case of a patient with an Optimizer III system delivering cardiac contractility modulating signals (CCM) for heart failure therapy and an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) who underwent CE. No interferences between the devices were found.
无线视频胶囊内镜检查(CE)是一种现代诊断工具。由于其使用数字射频,对于植入心脏设备的患者仍相对禁忌。我们报告了一例患者,该患者使用Optimizer III系统输送心脏收缩力调制信号(CCM)进行心力衰竭治疗,并植入了植入式心脏复律除颤器(ICD),且接受了CE检查。未发现设备之间存在干扰。
