UC San Diego Health is the first in San Diego to successfully implant the world’s first dual chamber and leadless pacemaker system to help treat people with abnormal heart rhythms. Holding the device and pictured above is Ulrika Birgersdotter-Green, MD, cardiologist and director of pacemaker and ICD services at UC San Diego Health.

She had a single chamber ICD/Pacemaker implanted several years prior due to ventricular tachycardia. Seeing as the patient has a single chamber ICD/pacemaker, pacing the ventricle will also lead to AV dyssynchrony that will compromise ventricular filling, further impairing hemodynamics. small squares in width (260ms).

ABSTRACT Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, and atrioventricular (AV) node ablation with pacemaker implantation is a therapeutic option for refractory cases. However, AV node ablation in patients with bioprosthetic tricuspid valves poses technical challenges.

Abstract Introduction Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has emerged as the most effective therapy. However, rare anatomical abnormalities such as situs inversus totalis, dextrocardia, or interrupted inferior vena cava can make ablation challenging.

Cardioneuroablation could be a reasonable alternative to pacemaker implantation in symptomatic carotid sinus syndrome. Abstract Introduction Carotid sinus syndrome (CSS), characterized by exaggerated vagal responses leading to asystolic pauses with carotid sinus massage (CSM), often necessitates pacemaker implantation.
