BRAZIL CARDIAC PACEMAKERS MARKET ANALYSIS

Market Challenges And Opportunities

• Infections Associated with Cardiac Pacemaker Implantation 

Brazil Cardiac Pacemakers Market Restraint

Cardiac pacemaker infections are complex to manage, as there are intra-cardiac and extra-cardiac components, which may get infected and removal of the device is associated with a risk of death or significant complications. Long term hospital stays and multiple in-patient hospital admissions are common in pacemaker infections and efforts to treat infected systems often results in unnecessarily prolonged courses of treatment. Furthermore, cardiac pacemaker infections can be difficult to diagnose. The diagnosis is more difficult in infective endocarditis (IE) as echocardiography is less accurate, blood cultures are less sensitive, and the diagnosis is often not considered.
