ABSTRACT

O propósito deste estudo clínico é demonstrar a segurança e eficácia do cabo-eletrodo bipolar modelo 5092 (Medtronic, Inc.), quando usado para estimulaçäo e sensibilidade cardíaca. O estudo verificará também que o cado-eletrodo modelo 5092 pode ser implantado com sucesso usando as técnicas de manuseio dos cabos-eletrodos padräo. As informaçöes opera a manipulaçäo do cabo-eletrodo seräo usadas para recomendar procedimentos de implante e para instruçöes de novos usos ao colocá-lo no mercado. Uma revisäo dos métodos de estudo e uma apresentaçäo abrangente dos resultados estäo incluídas neste relato. Realizou-se uma avaliaçäo prospectiva do cabo-eletrodo modelo 5092 usando os resultados de estudos clínicos do modelo 5024M como um controle. A semelhança do modelo 5092, o modelo 5024M é também de silicone, bipolar, coaxial, transvenoso de fixaçäo passiva, e revestido com esteróide. Os dados dos pacientes para o modelo 5092 neste relato foram coletados no implante, na pré-alta hospitalar, e duas semanas, um mês e três meses após o implante. Os dados dos pacientes continuaräo sendo coletados até seis meses após o implante e a partir daí a cada seis meses até o final do estudo.

ABSTRACT

Dermolipectomy is the most important procedure for treatment of the deformities engendered by massive weight loss. It remains the only treatment for excising redundant skin. Although liposuction is useful for removing fatty deposits without traditional surgical incisions, its application is limited by the ability of the skin to contract and conform to the newly sculpted figure. Thus liposuction may serve as an adjunct when treating the sequelae of weight loss but not as a primary procedure. In response to changing expectations, reconstructive surgeons have developed increasingly ingenious and specific dermolipectomy procedures to minimize or hide scars, lessen morbidity, and enhance function. Liposuction in combination with dermolipectomy has expanded the applicability of traditional procedures to a wider variety of patients. Surgical history, patient selection, surgical planning, a spectrum of regional dermolipectomy procedures, and potential complications are discussed herein.

ABSTRACT

Liposuction is the most commonly used procedure for focal reduction of body fat deposits and remodeling the body contour. The procedure consists in aspirating fat from lamellar deposits using a vacuum source connected to a cannula that is passed bluntly through fatty tissue. Adjuncts to the procedure include infiltration of solutions to aid in fat removal or to limit blood loss and the application of ultrasonic energy to lyse fat cells before suction aspiration. Surgical history, theory, procedures, indications, potential complications, and guidelines are discussed herein.
