Presence of cardiac and vascular implants and grafts - what does this mean
Cardiac and vascular implants and grafts occur when a medical device such as a pacemaker, stent, or heart valve is surgically implanted into the heart or vascular system to replace a defective part, improve blood flow, or provide support for a weakened vessel. the device is usually connected to the body via a graft, which is a tube made from a synthetic material that is implanted into the body to provide a pathway for the device.
What happens during the disease - presence of cardiac and vascular implants and grafts
The presence of cardiac and vascular implants and grafts can lead to a number of complications, including infection, thrombosis, and occlusion of the implant or graft. these complications can lead to a decrease in cardiac output, increased risk of stroke, and other serious medical issues. in addition, the foreign material can cause inflammation and immune responses, leading to further complications.
