Abstract
In this study, we evaluated 19 patients with permanent pacemaker. Eleven children were females, and 8 were males whose mean age was 9.8$pm$ 5.5 years at the time of implantation of pacemaker. Types of pacemaker were WIR in the 11 patients, DDDR in the 5 patients and ICD in the 3 patients. Indications for pacing were complete atrioventricular block in the 15 patients, sinus node arrest in the 1 patient, long QT syndrome in the 3 patients. In the ten patient, there was an underlying congenital heart disease. However heart disease was not found in the 9 patients. Mean follow-up period of the patients was 22.3 ± 16.9 months. A neonate with complex congenital cardiopathy and complete atrioventricular block has died after epicardial pace implantation.
Özet
Çalışmamızda kalıcı pacemaker implantasyonu uygulanan 19 olgu değerlendirildi. Vakalarımızın 11'i kız, 8'i erkek ve pacemaker implantasyon yaşı ortalama 9.8 ± 5.5 yıl idi. implante edilen pacemaker tipi 11 olguda WIR, 5 olguda DDDR ve 3 olguda ICD şeklindeydi. Pacemaker implantasyonu 15 olguda atriyoventriküler tam blok, 1 olguda sinusal arrest, 3 olguda ise uzun QT sendromu nedeniyle yapıldı. Dokuz olguda altta yatan bir kalp hastalığı saptanmazken, 10'unda kalp hastalığı mevcuttu. Olgularımızın ortalama izlem süresi 22.3 ± 16.9 ay idi. Kompleks konjenital kalp hastalığı saptanan ve atriyoventriküler tam blok nedeniyle cerrahi olarak epikardiyal pacemaker takılan 1 aylık bir olgu exitus ile sonuçlandı.
