Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy CRT and CRTD implantation
CRTD Implant Procedure in Sarjapur Road, Bangalore
CRT, or cardiac resynchronisation therapy, is a type of treatment that helps the heart beat more efficiently. It does this by using electrical pulses to stimulate the heart muscles and help them work together more effectively. CRTD, or cardiac resynchronisation therapy with a defibrillator, is a similar treatment that also includes a defibrillator, which is a device that can shock the heart back into a normal rhythm if it starts to beat erratically. CRT and CRTD can help improve the quality of life for people with heart conditions and even extend life expectancy.
Before the procedure
In order to prepare for a CRT or CRTD procedure, your cardiologist will likely order a series of tests to assess your heart function and to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. These tests may include an electrocardiogram (EKG), echocardiogram, cardiac MRI, and/or stress test. The patient will also be asked about their medical history and any medications they are currently taking. Once your cardiologist has determined that you are a good candidate for CRT or CRTD, they will work with you to develop a plan for the procedure. You will be asked to arrive at the hospital or procedure centre early in the morning on the day of the procedure. You will be given a sedative to help you relax, and an IV will be started in your arm. Book an appointment to have the best treatment.
Procedure
-
The patient is placed in a supine position on the table. An anesthesiologist monitors the patient's vital signs and provides pain relief if necessary. A transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) is used to visualise the heart and great vessels.
-
A catheter is inserted into the femoral vein and passed through the vena cava into the right atrium. The catheter is then passed through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
-
A guidewire is passed through the catheter and into the left ventricle. The catheter is then passed over the guidewire and into the left ventricle. A second guidewire is passed through the catheter and into the right ventricle. The catheter is then passed over the second guidewire and into the right ventricle. The catheters are then positioned in the right and left ventricles.
-
A pacing lead is passed through the catheter and into the right ventricle. The pacing lead is then positioned in the right ventricle. A second pacing lead is passed through the catheter and into the left ventricle. The second pacing lead is then positioned in the left ventricle. The pacing leads are then connected to a pacing generator.
-
The pacing generator is then programmed to deliver pacing pulses to the right and left ventricles. The pacing generator is then turned on, and the pacing pulses are delivered to the ventricles.
-
The TEE is used to monitor the heart during the pacing. The pacing is continued until the desired effect is achieved. The pacing generator is then turned off, and the pacing leads are removed. The catheters are then removed, and the incisions are closed. Visit our cardiology hospital in Bangalore for the best treatment.
After the procedure
The post-procedure for CRT & CRTD involves several steps that need to be taken to ensure successful results.
-
First, the patient's blood pressure, heart rate, and electrocardiogram (ECG) should be monitored closely.
-
Second, the patient should be given oxygen and pain medication as needed.
-
Third, the patient's chest should be x-rayed to check for any complications.
-
Fourth, the patient should be closely monitored for any signs of heart failure or arrhythmias.
-
Fifth, the patient should be followed up with on a regular basis to ensure that the CRT & CRTD devices are working properly.
