Clinical Analysis Of The Common Complications Of The Permanent Cardiac Pacemaker

Objective To explore the postimplant complications of permanent cardiac pacemakers, their reason, treatment and preventive measures. Methods The records of 326 patients receiving a permanent pacemaker were reviewed and complications of the patients were analyzed. Results There were 20 cases of complications after the permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation,3 cases(0.92%) of wrong puncture in clavicle artery, 1 cases(0.31%) pneumothorax, 1 cases(0.31%)coronary sinus dissection, 1 cases (0.31%) of injecting bubble to corronary vein, 2 cases(0.61%) of disturbance of perception, 1 cases(0.31%) of battery exhaust advanc, 1 cases(0.31%) of pacemaker syndrome, 1 cases (0.31%) of pacemaker mediated tachycardi,3 cases(0.92%)of electrode displacement, 4cases (1.23%) of pocket hematoma,1 cases(0.31%)of drain strip split, 1 cases(0.31%) of pocket infection. Conclusion Good prognosis will be resulted from deep understanding of the usual complications, increased differentiating ability, emphasized preoperation prevention, standardized operation, strengthened follow-up as well as the education of pacemaker knowledge, early discovery and treatment of the complications.
