| Popis: | BOHM, A., et al.: Intermittent Output Failure of a VVI Device Due to the Disintegration of the Generator. The metal case and the header of a Biovallees Coralite 247 pacemaker fell apart in a patient resulting in syncope due to myopotential inhibition. Upon recalling our patients with that type of device, we found a similar technological failure in 11 of 16 of them. This finding warrants a consideration for recalling that Biovallees device. |
