Installation of a pacemaker in K+31

We are glad to announce that for the first time a high-tech operation to install a permanent pacemaker was carried out at K+31.

With the help of X-ray endovascular technologies, just through a small incision and under local anesthesia, doctors O.V. Sapelnikov (cardiovascular surgeon, X-ray endovascular surgeon, Ph.D.) and I.R. Grishin (PhD, cardiovascular surgeon) managed to help a patient with complete AV block of grade 3 - the most severe and dangerous of all bradyarrhythmias.

Thanks to this method of treatment, a patient whose heart could stop at any moment can return to a fulfilling life.
