    Pacemakers have been used in clinical practice for more than 100 years, providing life support to millions of patients who need pacemaker support. Pacemakers are mainly used for bradycardia, but also for tachyarrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, which are potentially fatal diseases. After the pacemaker was installed, the patient was given a new lease of life.

    The use of pacemakers in China is from the 90s to the present, with a history of nearly 30 years. So what is its harm, at present, the help of the pacemaker itself to the body is far greater than its harm. Its hazards:

    1. Some patients are relatively thin, and the pacemaker is repeatedly worn out after it is installed, and they are afraid that the pacemaker will wear out and break, and even have fistula and infection; 2. Place the pacemaker and not go to a place with a high magnetic field, which will affect the pacing and perception function of the pacemaker; 3. There are also some patients who like to do electrotherapy, which is what ordinary people call electroacupuncture, this kind of electroacupuncture with electricity, because it has microcurrent, will have some impact on the microcomputer system of the pacemaker. Therefore, some other hazards should be no, you can play with a pacemaker, and it is very safe to travel by plane. In addition, if a pacemaker is installed, the limb on the side of the pacemaker should not do large movements, simple movements are no problem, violent movements and injuries, fear of damaging the pacemaker's electrodes.

    Because everyone's physical fitness is different, the reaction after installation is also different, so the consequences are very different, so you still have to consider your own reasons before installation.

    After the pacemaker is installed, it may not be recognized as incapacitated, but can only be said to be partially incapacitated, because some jobs do not have a particularly large impact on the heart.

    With the advancement of medical technology, many people with abnormal heart rhythms have been fitted with pacemakers. With this small device, heart patients can enjoy a normal life. However, you can't think that having a pacemaker installed will give you peace of mind once and for all.

    On some special occasions, you still have to be vigilant.

    You can't do these things with a pacemaker.

    Avoid the influence of high and low frequency electrical appliancesHigh and low frequency electrical appliances will inhibit the pulse issued by the pacemaker when working, so that the pacemaker will stop working, so patients should not be close to the electromagnetic physiotherapy instrument and electrical cautery instrument at work, and the filling of teeth should not be done with an electric drill, and should not be used for spectrum or electromagnetic wave physiotherapy.

    Within the first 3 months of pacemaker installation, usually, the pacemaker can be fixed on the endocardium after 3 months of implantation, in order to avoid the dislocation of the pacemaker lead, sleep within 1 month after surgery, the supine position or left decubitus position should be taken; For 3 months after surgery, strenuous activities of the upper limb on the side of the pacemaker should be avoided and the arm should be raised, but daily activities such as washing and eating are not a problem.

    After 3 months of installing the pacemaker, you can swim, run, dance, travel and other activities if your physical strength allows. Don't forget to bring your pacemaker identification card with you when you travel so that your local doctor can understand your condition if something goes wrong.

    You can't do these things with a pacemaker.

    Mobile phones interfere with pacemakers, so don't put your phone in your pocket very close to the pacemaker, and if the pacemaker is on the right chest, make or receive the phone on the left side. In addition, when talking with a mobile phone, be sure to stay more than 10 cm away from the pacemaker on the chest, and each call should not be too long, try not to exceed 30 seconds.

    Level 1 subjects are generally equivalent to clinical level 1 disciplines, such as "internal medicine", "surgery", etc.;

    Level 2 subjects are generally equivalent to clinical level 2 disciplines, such as "Respiratory Medicine", "Gastroenterology", etc.

    In order to facilitate the use of specialized medical institutions, some clinical secondary disciplines are included in the first-level subjects.

    You can think of it this way, A and B are physicians, and C is surgeons according to your third line of thought:

    One of the 12 internists was chosen, and an A was chosen; Choosing one of the 8 surgeons, C was chosen; Out of the remaining 18, 3 were selected, and B and the other two doctors D and E were chosen

    One of the 12 internists was chosen, and B was chosen; Choosing one of the 8 surgeons, C was chosen; Then 3 out of the remaining 18, A and two other doctors, D and E, were selected

    This should be counted as one case, but in your method, it is counted as two or even more cases, so it is repeated.

    One was randomly selected from 12 physicians, then one from eight surgeons, and finally three from the remaining 18 people.

    The third step of the idea, "randomly take 3 out of the remaining 18 people", and these 3 may be physicians, then it is related to the first step of "randomly taking one from 12 internal physicians", which is not an independent random event, and likewise, it may be related to the second step, "randomly taking one of the 8 surgeons".

    For example: W-Surgery; N-Internal Medicine.

    w1, n1, w2+w3+n2, w2, n1, w1+w3+n2, w3, n1, w1+w2+n2, the above three takes are the same combination, but in your third solution, they are counted more than 3 times.

    If you don't understand, you can ask.

Patients with pacemakers can survive for a long time without compromising their lifespan. The main principle of the artificial pacemaker is to generate a certain electrical pulse to replace the function of the sinus node and the atrioventricular node, so after the pacemaker is installed, it will work at a set frequency or according to the amount of activity that senses the patient, so that the patient's heart beats. Installing a pacemaker is the best way to treat bradyarrhythmias, such as sick sinus syndrome and severe atrioventricular block, and a pacemaker is the best method. >>>More

Yes. The main problem is that some patients may cause a decrease in cardiac function, especially in pacemaker-dependent patients or patients with pre-existing cardiac insufficiency. At this point, your doctor will weigh the pros and cons and give you the right advice. >>>More

After the pacemaker is implanted, a very small surgical incision will be left, we have to say how long the recovery period of this surgery is, mainly refers to when the surgical wound can be completely healed, when the capsule can return to normal, this period Generally speaking, the left or right subclavian pacemaker pouch is done, then 10-14 days can basically heal, of course, young people may be faster, about a week, 7-10 days, some older people, It may take a little slower to recover because his healing rate is slightly slower than in younger people, i.e. about two weeks. Therefore, generally speaking, after the pacemaker pouch heals, the patient will basically enter the recovery period, and we do not recommend that the patient make large movements on the limb on the side of the pacemaker during this time, such as hyperextension, overlifting or weight-bearing, which may affect the healing of the pacemaker pouch.
