What is a cardiac control?

Cardiostimulator control is a check that makes sure the pacemaker works properly. There are two types of cardiac control. One can be done at home and one needs to be done in the doctor's office and tends to be more extensive. Patients with pacemakers generally perform domestic tests every one to two months or as needed, and then visit a doctor about once a year for a thorough evaluation, including the control of the pacemaker. Further monitoring will be recommended about a month later, at a time when the patient can restore normal activities after implantation of the pacemaker. Then the cardiac function is monitored remotely at home and on annual visits. This can be done with a technician or macna playback after hours on a pacemaker check the hot line, usually maintained by a hospital or a heart clinic. The patient wears on the wrist to the transmission of pulse and the magnet designed for this purpose can be triggered via pacemaker to return further results. PTerritorial results are unusual, the patient is announced, and if they are OK, the Primary Care Provider is submitted to the patient's record for records.

In the doctor's office, the doctor involves almost the same procedure, while the doctor performs it in the office rather than by phone. The patient may also be provided electrocardiogram and will be asked about any cardiac problems. Doctors are looking for problems such as irregular heart rate, cardiac migration or chest wires and a dying pacemaker. If there are problems, the procedure may be required to repair them, or it may be possible to program a pacemaker using an external device.

It is important to get the pacemakers regularly check and ask for a meeting if there is a problem with the pacemaker. Hotlines for people who carry out cardiostimulator checks are usually in runningOvné working hours for people who have questions or concerns, or who need help in carrying out their first few checks. The results are returned on the same day when people call during working hours and the next day if the calls are after a few hours.
