Incidence and implications of abrasion of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads

The American Journal of Cardiology
D B De LurgioJ J Langberg

Abstract

Severe abrasion of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads is frequently found during abdominal generator replacement and occasionally results in lead system failure. Careful inspection of leads at the time of generator replacement will identify such abrasions, and, in some cases, lead repair or replacement may be indicated.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
