Dynamic cardiomyoplasty was performed in a patient using a new cardio-myostimulator (LD-PACE II) designed to enable a novel stimulation regimen that utilizes a new range of stimulation options, including cessation during sleep. After treatment, left ventricular ejection fraction improved in 24 months from 15% to 25% and New York Heart Association classification improved from class IV to II.
This report demonstrates the impact of providing curative radiation-based treatments for cervical cancer in a small state. It suggests ways to further improve operations and justifies additional research.
