Implantable cardiac devices, such as pacemakers, are used to treat a number of heart conditions, especially those related to the electrical conduction system. Cardiac pacemakers are a well-established and effective therapy, and have been in use for more than 50 years. The first pacemaker was implanted in a patient in October 1958 by Åke Senning in Stockholm, in cooperation with engineer Rune… View more

Implantable cardiac devices such as implantable cardioverter- defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) devices lead to improved survival and better clinical outcomes in appropriately selected patients with heart failure (HF) with a reduced ejection fraction (EF). Although there are significant sex differences in the aetiology, pathophysiology and clinical course of HF,… View more

Prof Francisco Leyva and Prof Mauro Biffi introduce this online video series, filmed in partnership with the BHRS. Through a series of 8 videos, they explain how faculty aim to draw parallels on hospital responses during the COVID-19 crisis and assess how treating patients in cardiology has been during this period and how cardiologists will continue to operate in what will be the new ‘normal’.

Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy is effective and safe. However, infections related to CIED treatment may have devastating consequences, causing significant morbidity, mortality and generating considerable healthcare costs.1–6 Temporal trends in CIED treatment indicate a disproportional increase in CIED infections relative to implantation rates.1,7,8 Reasons for this trend are… View more
