Cardiac. Tamponade After Removal

Abstract

Summary : We are  presenting a case of removal of pacing wire post operatively in an  anticoagulated  lady with double valve replacement (tissue valves), who developed cardiac :ide and collapsed, and was successfully resuscitated after emergency exploratory
- 1, (EES).

Discussion: The incidence of pulling the pacing wire occurred 13 days after the operation in an anticoagulated patient. The insertion and removal of the pacing wires require a special protocol. Epicardial pacing wire removal(EPWR) is a procedure performed on postoperatice cardiac surgery patients.
