Leadless cardiac pacing has not been widely utilized in pediatric patients, in part due to concerns regarding size of the delivery sheath and the potential for vascular injury.
We present a case of leadless pacemaker implantation via internal jugular vein without a surgical cutdown.
A leadless pacemaker was successfully implanted in the right ventricle via internal jugular approach in a pediatric patient with congenital heart disease.
This is a novel approach to leadless pacemaker implantation that could broaden the utilization of this technology to the vulnerable population of children, especially those with congenital heart disease.
无导线心脏起搏在儿科患者中尚未得到广泛应用,部分原因是对输送鞘管大小和血管损伤的潜在风险的担忧。
我们介绍了一例经颈内静脉无外科切口植入无导线起搏器的病例。
一名患有先天性心脏病的儿科患者成功地通过颈内静脉途径在心室内植入了无导线起搏器。
这是一种植入无导线起搏器的新方法,可以将这项技术更广泛地应用于儿童这一脆弱群体,特别是那些患有先天性心脏病的儿童。
