Pacemaker implantationfor Sick sinus syndrome

Pacemakers are small, electronic devices used to treat excessively slow heart rhythms (bradycardia or differents types of block). Pacemakers send signals to heart muscle that cause the muscle to contract at the correct pace, so that blood is pumped properly through the body. Today’s advanced pacemakers adjust heart rates according to changes in the body’s activity level. Thus, the pacemaker adjusts the heart’s rate when the person is resting or exercising.

When heart’s structures assuring normal heart rythm and frequency are alterate, a slow cardiac rythm can occur, leading to various symptoms ( dizziness, confusion, syncope – loss of conciouness, angina – chest pain, dyspnea – difficult breath, renal or hepatic disfunction, low exertion capacity).

The major beneffit is in case of patients who have cardiac failure with low ejection fraction (<35%; the ejection fraction is the measurement of how much blood is being pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart (the percentage)), wich are at high risk for developing severe arrythmias.

Percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve repair (Mitraclip)

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a condition in which the heart’s mitral valve leaflets do not close tightly. When this happens, blood flows backward from the heart’s left ventricle into the left atrium. The heart must then work harder to push blood through the body, which can cause fatigue, shortness of breath and worsening heart failure. It is the most common type of heart valve insufficiency.

Robot revolutionizes knee replacement surgery

Georgette Greene has an active lifestyle and works out at least five times a week. But six years ago, the Campbell resident realized she could no longer do a squat. She exercised even harder and lost weight. “That helped for a little while,” she said. “But from there my knees got progressively worse.” Today the 57-year-old Greene lies in a hospital bed for the first time since having her daughter— now seated by her side — 31 years ago. She’s about to undergo total knee replacement surgery.
