Recently, the Department of Cardiology at Wusong Hospital, Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, successfully performed the first leadless pacemaker implantation + left atrial appendage closure "one-stop" interventional ultra-minimally invasive surgery for a 77-year-old man in Baoshan District . It solved the old man's long-standing "big worry".

77-year-old Mr. Sun suffers from chronic atrial fibrillation, accompanied by bradycardia , and has risk factors such as hypertension and peripheral vascular disease . He has suffered multiple cerebral infarctions. A few days ago, I came to the hospital for treatment due to sudden fatigue and numbness.

Considering that the elderly suffer from various complications and that long-term anticoagulation leads to a greater risk of bleeding in other parts, the attending team finally recommended leadless pacing implantation + left atrial appendage occlusion, which means performing left atrial appendage at the same time during the operation. Atrial appendage occlusion and leadless pacemaker implantation. On the same day, the operation only took 2 hours. The old man could get out of bed 6 hours after the operation and be discharged from the hospital in 3-5 days.

Atrial fibrillation , referred to as " atrial fibrillation ", is one of the most common arrhythmias . The incidence of atrial fibrillation in people over 75 years old is as high as 10%. In addition to causing palpitation and discomfort, atrial fibrillation is one of the greatest hazards. More than 90% of patients with atrial fibrillation have blood clots hidden in the left atrial appendage, the "little ear" of the heart, and their risk of cerebral infarction is 5-6 times higher than that of normal people.

Applying an occluder to block the left atrial appendage through interventional surgery can effectively prevent the formation of left atrial appendage thrombus in atrial fibrillation, reduce the risk of long-term disability or death caused by thromboembolism in patients with atrial fibrillation, and avoid various complications caused by anticoagulation therapy. risk of bleeding. Compared with traditional pacing, capsule-sized leadless pacing weighs no more than 2g, has a battery life of about 13 years, has less implantation pain, and has no pocket infection or lead complications.

Wusong Hospital, Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University Department of Cardiovascular Medicine is a key discipline in Baoshan District. In 2021, with the strong support of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, the Department of Cardiology successfully joined the team of academician Ge Junbo, a cardiology expert. The overall strength has been significantly improved, and more than 1,000 cases of interventional diagnosis and treatment have been completed annually.
