Artificial Pacemaker $79.66 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A pacemaker (or artificial pacemaker, so as not to be confused with the hearts natural pacemaker) is a medical device which uses electrical impulses, delivered by electrodes contacting the heart muscles, to regulate the beating of the heart. The primary purpose of a pacemaker is to maintain an adequate heart rate, either because the hearts native pacemaker is not fast enough, or there is a block in the hearts electrical conduction system. Modern pacemakers are externally programmable and allow the cardiologist to select the optimum pacing modes for individual patients. Some combine a pacemaker and defibrillator in a single implantable device. Others have multiple electrodes stimulating differing positions within the heart to improve synchronisation of the lower chambers of the heart.

Pacemaker Potential $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In the pacemaking cells of the heart (e.g., the sinoatrial node), the pacemaker potential (also called the pacemaker current) is the slow, positive increase in voltage across the cells membrane (the membrane potential) that occurs between the end of one action potential and the beginning of the next action potential. This increase in membrane potential is what causes the cell membrane, which typically maintains a resting membrane potential of 70 mV, to reach the threshold potential and consequently fire the next action potential; thus, the pacemaker potential is what drives the selfgenerated rhythmic firing (automaticity) of pacemaker cells, and the rate of change (i.e., the slope) of the pacemaker potential is what determines the timing of the next action potential and thus the intrinsic firing rate of the cell. In a healthy sinoatrial node (SAN, a complex tissue within the right atrium containing pacemaker cells that normally determine the intrinsic firing rate for the entire hear), the pacemaker potential is the main determinant of the heart rate.

Pacemaker Failure $58.94 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Pacemaker failure is the inability of an implanted artificial pacemaker to perform its intended function of regulating the beating of the heart. It is defined by the requirement of repeat surgical pacemakerrelated procedure after the initial implantation. A study of pacemaker failure in Oregon in the 1970s indicates that 10 of implanted pacemakers failed within the first month. Causes of pacemaker failure included: lead related failure (lead migration, lead fracture, ventricular perforation), unit malfunction (battery failure or component malfunction), problems at the insertion site (infections, tissue breakdown, battery pack migration), failures related to exposure to high voltage electricity or high intensity microwaves, and a miscellaneous category (one patient had ventricular tachycardia when using his electric razor and another patient suffered from persistent pacing of the diaphragm muscle).

Pacemaker Action Potential $79.66 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A pacemaker action potential is the kind of action potential that provides a reference rhythm for the network. This contrasts with pacemaker potential or current which drives rhythmic modulation of firing rate. Some pacemaker action potentials generate rhythms for the heart beat (sinoatrial node) or the circadian rhythm in the suprachiasmatic nucleus.In physiology, an action potential is a shortlasting event in which the electrical membrane potential of a cell rapidly rises and falls, following a stereotyped trajectory.

Wandering Pacemaker $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In cardiology, a wandering pacemaker is an atrial arrhythmia that occurs when the natural cardiac pacemaker site shifts between the SA node, the atria, and/or the AV node. This shifting of the pacemaker from the SA node to adjacent tissues is manifested electrocardiographically by transient changes in the size shape and direction of the P waves. A wandering pacemaker is usually caused by varying vagal tone. With increased vagal tone the SA Node slows, allowing a pacemaker in the atria or AV Nodal area, which may become slightly faster briefly. After vagal tone decreases the SA Node assumes its natural pac Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Adrian Kantrowitz $45 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Adrian Kantrowitz (October 4, 1918 – November 14, 2008) was an American cardiac surgeon who performed the world’s first pediatric heart transplant at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn on December 6, 1967. It was only the second time that a human heart had been transplanted into another human being, taking place just three days after Christiaan Barnard’s seminal attempt in South Africa made headlines around the world and ushered in a new era in clinical organ transplantation. Kantrowitz also invented the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), a left ventricular assist device (L-VAD), and an early version of the implantable pacemaker. Kantrowitz married Jean Rosensaft on November 25, 1948. His wife was an administrator on the surgical research laboratories at Maimonides Medical Center while he was there. Kantrowitz died at age 90 in Ann Arbor, Michigan on November 14, 2008 of heart failure. |

An Introduction to Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions $164.95 The interaction of tissue and synthetic material can be the pivotal element in the artificial replacement of a body part damaged by disease or trauma. Hip replacements, dental implants, pacemaker leads, vascular grafts, heart valves, and dialysis machines all involve microscopic, tissue-level events that determine the success or failure of such devices. An Introduction to Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions acquaints an undergraduate audience with the fundamental biological processes that influence these sophisticated, cutting-edge procedures.Chapters one through three provide more detail about the molecular-level events that happen at the tissue-implant interface, while chapters four through ten explore selected material, biological, and physiological consequences of these events. The importance of the body’s wound-healing response is emphasized throughout. Specific topics covered include:* Structure and properties of biomaterials* Proteins* Protein-surface interactions* Blood-biomaterial interactions* Inflammation and infection* The immune system* Biomaterial responses to implantation* Biomaterial surface engineering* Intimal hyperplasia and osseointegration as examples of tissue-biomaterial interactionsThe text also provides extensive coverage of the three pertinent interfaces between the body and the biomaterial, between the body and the living cells, and between the cells and the biomaterial that are critical in the development of tissue-engineered products that incorporate living cells within a biomaterial matrix.Ideal for a one-semester, biomedical engineering course, An Introduction to Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions provides a solid framework for understanding today’s and tomorrow’s implantable biomedical devices. |

Born in the USA: The American Book of Origins $12.95 From Bubble Wrap to Bubblegum, from Men-on-the-Moon to Monopoly, from Kidney Transplants to Kool-Aid, to microwave ovens to M & M’s, America has been at the forefront of the main advances of the human race for the last two centuries. America has given birth to more new products, devices, medicines, leisure pursuits, sports, religions, music and vehicles than any other country, ancient or modern. Born in the USA celebrates that great pioneering drive which is the pulsing heart of America, with some surprising inventors such as George Washington, Jamie Lee Curtis, Abraham Lincoln, Lee Trevino, Michael Jackson, Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen. (Zeppo Marx, last of the Marx Brothers, developed the first heart pulse-rate monitor.) Americans have also created some of the most bizarre and comic inventions ever dreamed up. The same country that gave the world the heart pacemaker and email, also gave us the “Denver Boot” (wheel clamps) and Chinese fortune cookies. |
