Patient Testimonial for Non-Invasive Leadless Pacemaker Implantation
Testimonial by Mrs. Sheila Andrews
Treatment for: Non-Invasive Leadless Pacemaker Implantation
Treated by: Dr. Ashwin Tumkur
Speciality: Cardiology
Procedure: Non-Invasive Leadless Pacemaker Implantation
Patient location: Malakpet
A Pacemaker is a device that sends electrical impulses to the heart muscle to maintain a suitable heart rate. A non-invasive leadless pacemaker is 90% smaller than a transvenous pacemaker and is a self-contained generator device that is inserted in the right ventricle of the heart. Everyone is not a candidate for a leadless pacemaker. 68-year-old patient, Mrs. Sheila Andrews was well-suited for leadless pacemaker surgery. Dr. Ashwin Tumkur, a Consultant Interventional Cardiologist at Yashoda Hospitals Malakpet had examined her a few years ago and inserted a permanent pacemaker. Off late she was experiencing renal dysfunction with a rise in her creatinine levels. On further evaluation, it was found that her heart rate was low leading to a complete heart block. Dr. Ashwin stabilized her with a completely non-invasive leadless pacemaker and all the necessary cardiological medical interventions.
