Case Report: A nine year follow-up for a pacemaker generator poly-tetra-fluoro-ethylene coating for allergic reactions to pacemaker compounds

2018-09-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Allergic reaction to pacemaker compounds is a rare complication of cardiac pacing. Initial management is difficult because accurate diagnosis is often delayed. The tendency is to initially suspect a bacterial infection, rather than to quickly rule out an allergy to the pacemaker components. Management of this condition is difficult and not well established. Case presentation: A 75-year-old m...
