PACEMAKER INTEGRATED WITH VASCULAR INTERVENTION CATHETER

摘要

Cardioprotective pacing is applied to prevent and/or reduce cardiac injury associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and revascularization procedure. Pacing pulses are generated from a flexible pacemaker circuit integrated with a percutaneous transluminal vascular intervention (PTVI) device and delivered through pacing electrodes incorporated onto the PTVI device during the revascularization procedure.
