My father is having a pacemaker put in as I write this. I was having lots of worry about the proceedure but, what I feared was not knowing or understanding what it is. This video put my mind at ease. Thank you!🙏❤😊
I'm registered in General Hospital of Colombo SRILANKA to implant a pace maker. Hope I'll give early date. Thanks a lot for this video which encouraged me a lot.
15!? 😮 was you scared or awake? I believe I need one & im 34. Thought I was young. And if you don’t mind me asking what did you need it for & do you feel better?
I had a pacemaker fitted a few days ago after being taken to hospital as an emergency. Due to a nurse error I was given food when I should have been nil by mouth. Consequently I couldn’t have sedation. Even though I was given enough local anaesthetic for a bull, everything was extremely painful. I’ve never had pain like it. I only mention this so that viewers ensure they can have sedation. Believe me, it’s vital. ❤️
If it helps I'm 23, and have lived with a pacemaker since 14 I just had another one implanted last week. The surgery is very simple and recovery is as well.. my old device had to be removed so a bit of pain from that due to it being underneath my pectoral muscle, but nonetheless it's a very easy recovery. Best of luck!
I had one fitted two days ago - it sucked because of my tolerance to anaesthesia and the sciatica flare-up in my thighs, but for most people I doubt they would have a real problem with it I was quite surprised at the size of the device too - I thought it would be about the size of a watch but it was closer to the size of a digestive biscuit (cookie)!! Feeling sore from the wound but haven’t required any painkillers since
That's a bit weirrd. I had one fitted at the hospital near Newport, the Grange. It was agony and I felt every slice of the scalpel and every lead being pushed into every vein. Clearly, the local anaesthetic had not worked. I shouted out 'No! Stop! Something's wrong!' but they carried on. When I was shaking with pain and fear, the surgeon shouted 'Please! You must stay still' I'm pretty sure it's not like that for everyone. I was expecting something which felt like dental work and I got the worst phyisical experience of my life. Not only that, they ignored the complaint I sent in a month ago. So by all means go for it. But I'd advise you to ask what happens if the local doesn't work, and to stay away from that bunch of butchers near Newport in Gwent. Seriously, I still have nightmares.
Just like my own replacement after only 5 weeks. It was hideously painful with great tugging and pulling, not at all like the first one, which sadly moved and resulted in a new pacemaker as well as lead. I don't know I how I could ever go back if it was necessary, I was terrified and likely to be sore for quitr a while.
Had a ICD fitted in Feb 2024 ,(today) and I have to be honest the first 30 seconds where the surgeon was ramming and squeezing it in the 2.5 inch opening was some of the worse pain I’ve ever felt.After that it was just a irritating pulling and tugging sensation.Overall not to bad ,but damn that initial part was agony.
I have a slow heart rate and have had a pacemaker for 2 years now. The doctor set my heart rate at 50-130. Can we exercise and play football? And is there a chance that the lead wire will come off or not? And when we exercise beyond the prescribed pulse at 130, will it have any effect on the machine or ourselves? thank you.
Yes. It can be implanted on either side. Usually placed on the patient's nondominant side but it honestly depends. Being in the medical field- I've more so seen them being placed on the upper right side, above the SA node.
Don’t get it!!!!!!! I have one. It’s the worse thing you can do. My dominant side is my left and they shoved mine next to me heart, directly under my left armpit. It’s the worse thing that has ever happened to me. Please don’t get it installed and do some serious research on the whole agenda. I wish you the very best✨
Ernestas Ju Hey, if you still have any questions I might be able to help. I’m 25 and I’ve had an ICD and Pacemaker since I was 15. Leave your discord if you want to have a chat
@@ludvigalnevall682 Hi - I had an ICD implanted above three weeks ago and I feel like my heart is pacing with the influence of my ICD. I am also getting small joultes which are annoying. Have you experience this and will they disappear?
@@cryptolife77 I’ve had a s-icd for over two years now and this is exactly what was happening to me within the first 12-18 months. I’m talking with my cardiologist in 2 weeks to discuss how I want mine taken out and NEVER put back in. I wish you the very best but all I can say is that the pain just gets worse and worse as the days goes. It’s made my quality of life so much more worse than it ever was before it was inside of me. We’re all just science projects… they don’t care at all about you or I or anyone else. It’s a downright evil agenda to try and merge us with machines to create a transhuman… Cyborg if you will. Wish I did research before having it put in. Good luck✨
I have ANRVT (SVT) im 45 years old im very scared my plan ahead is catheter ablation due to intolerance of medication im allergic to opiates and contrast dye I haven't seen the consultant yet but I am very scared my anxiety is very high 😥
feb 14 th 2019 the doctor wired up a nerve and damaged my lung , while putting in my pacemaker , so my lung collapsed , & a pocket filled up in my chest , so I had to have the pocket drained very painful , & lung had to re inflate ^& doctor had to re operate to fix the pacemaker . on 22 nd feb 2019 , by the way i was sent home to my country town the same day as the pacemaker was inserted .
Pneumothorax is a known potential complication of pacemaker insertions. This is an excellent video. Doesn't cover any potential complications which they expect your cardiologist or RN to cover, it's just the procedure. Looking for videos that are clear and simple for my family. My mom is having a pacemaker put in tomorrow at age 96. And yes perfectly safe to perform at this age. Can improve cardiac function and decrease symptoms of congestive heart failure.
I was due to have an icd fitted on may the 13th fuck it I would rather go than have that thing in my chest have you seen the size of it it's 2 X 2.5 x 0.5 that's inches
I was told it was vital I had crtd fitted that was 16 months ago and I still haven't had it done but i.m 60 now so they probably hope I drop dead and save the NHS thousands
We are very lucky to have these amazing people saving lifes.
I am having a pacemaker fitted next week and found this video very educational and
it helped put my mind at rest
How have you been doing since having your pacemaker fitted Dave? I'm asking as my Mum is having one fitted today.
You are changing and improving lives. I am a big supporter of BHF
I recently had a defibrillator fitted by Dr Brown. He’s an absolute star and a great person.

How is your Father doing Chris? My Mother is having one fitted today as well .

This is excellent. My friend's husband is due to have a pacemaker fitted next week. I've sent it to her.
Two days ago I had a Pacemaker fitted. It was just as lady says. Good video
How did it feel? Was it scary? Was it painful?
A big thank u to cardiologist and cardiovascular technician 🤩🥰
I'm due to have a pacemaker in 10 days and I found this video very helpful. Thank you...
Hoping it went well.

Now I’m worried
My dad is due to have a Cardioversion & a defibrillator on Friday. Great video, has helped me better understand what the procedure involves.

That was a wonderful educational video,love it
Had my pacemaker fitted 2-days ago exactly what the lady said in the video
I had one from tow days but I feel pain in my arm do you have the same feeling?
I had one fitted two days ago - it sucked because of my tolerance to anaesthesia and the sciatica flare-up in my thighs, but for most people I doubt they would have a real problem with it
I was quite surprised at the size of the device too - I thought it would be about the size of a watch but it was closer to the size of a digestive biscuit (cookie)!! Feeling sore from the wound but haven’t required any painkillers since
God bless u my friend

Had an icd fitted 2 months ago at the liverpool heart and chest hospital the worst part was when then corterised the wires to the heart
#478THANK YOU FOR SHARING. Its scary. YOU GAVE THE BEST INFORMATION THANK YOU AGAIN.
Do they freeze the area of incision under the collar bone before incision.
I may be having one fitted soon,and wonder if I’ll still be able to play guitar,as in raised shoulder for strumming

The X-ray gives you an outline of where the heart is..... All I see the spine and 2 wires
Can a pacemaker be fitted on the right hand side of the chest?
Yes. It can be implanted on either side. Usually placed on the patient's nondominant side but it honestly depends. Being in the medical field- I've more so seen them being placed on the upper right side, above the SA node.

@@2wenty7 Do you know what a pacemaker is fitted for??? It's to save patients life and make it easy for them.
Understood well thanks.
Im 28 year old, and Ive had an ICD for 13 years.

I told the cardiology department i don't want a pacemaker. I don't think that they have taken any notice.
Is this surgery performed under general anaesthesia ?

I doubt it. 60 isn’t old. Have you asked about it since? It’s odd that they have left it so long.
