PACEMAKER WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION
1 DAY AFTER SURGERY

20 Years ago this patient had already received a pacemaker. For a few years back he developed atrial fibrillation without noticing it. A year ago he suffered from a syncope so we implanted a REVEAL to monitore his heart rhythm.
Patientenstimmen
People living in Switzerland:
Consultation, second opinions and all treatments are covered by basic health insurance.

After having no issues for 20 years Dr. Prof. Salzberg noticed the patient had developed atrial fibrillation. After suffering from a syncope we implanted a reveal, that's an event recorder, that controls the puls. Thanks to this recorder we could see, that the patient's heart made pauses from time to time. So we decided to implant a pacemaker. This happened yesterday with local anaesthia and today he can already live the clinic.
