Ngokungafaniyo ne-ablation eqhelekileyo yobushushu, esebenzisa ubushushu okanye ukubanda kakhulu, i-PFA inika ii-pulses zombane ezimfutshane ukuze zijolise ngokukhethekileyo kwizicubu zentliziyo ezibandakanyeka kwisigqi esingaqhelekanga ngelixa zinciphisa amathuba okwenzakala kwizakhiwo ezingqongileyo. Emva kwenkqubo, isigulana saphila kakuhle kwaye sakhululwa ngosuku olulandelayo. Ityala libonisa inyathelo eliya phambili kunyango lwesingqisho sentliziyo olukhokelwa ngokuchanekileyo, lugxininisa ukuhlanganiswa kwemephu ye-3D ephucukileyo kunye ne-PFA kunyango lwe-atrial fibrillation.

Iqela lezifundo ezahlukeneyo kwiZibhedlele zase-Indraprastha Apollo, eNew Delhi, elikhokelwa nguGqr. UVanita Arora, iNkokeli yeKlinikhi – iCardiac Electrophysiology, unyange umfazi oneminyaka engama-63 ubudala waseJammu owafumana usulelo olungapheliyo emva kokufumana i-pacemaker eqhelekileyo enamagumbi amabini yokuvaleka kwentliziyo ngokupheleleyo kunye neziganeko ze-syncope. Iqela laliquka uGqr. ULeena Mediratta, weMicrobiology kunye neZifo eziSulelayo, oxhase uvavanyo lwe-microbiological kunye nesikhokelo se-antimicrobial; UDkt. UPraveen Sodhi, uGqirha Jikelele kunye noGqirha weLaparoscopic, owayephethe ipokotho kunye nenxeba le-pacemaker eyosulelekileyo; kunye noGqr. USubhash Wangnoo, ingcali ye-Endocrinologist, owayejongene nolawulo lwesifo seswekile kunye nolawulo lwe-glucose oluqhubekayo. Emva kokufakelwa kwe-pacemaker kwangaphambili kwesinye isibhedlele, inxeba lotyando alizange liphole kwaye laqhubeka nokukhupha ubovu nangona unyango lwe-antibiotic lusetyenziswa. Inkcubeko eyenziwa kwisibhedlele sangaphambili yakhulisa iKlebsiella. Ukhathalelo lwakhe lwaba nzima ngakumbi ngenxa yesifo seswekile esingalawulwa kakuhle kunye nesifo samathambo esibizwa ngokuba yi-rheumatoid arthritis esifuna unyango lwe-steroid, zombini ezi zinto zinokuchaphazela ulawulo losulelo kunye nokuphiliswa kwamanxeba. Wayekhe wanqunyulwa unyawo lwasekhohlo ngaphambili ngenxa yesifo seswekile esibangela ukubola. Emva kokubonisana noGqr. Arora, isigulana sangeniswa kwiZibhedlele zase-Indraprastha Apollo ngomhla wama-22 ku-Agasti 2026. Ijenereyitha ye-pacemaker eyosulelekileyo kunye neentambo zombini ezifakwe kwimithambo yegazi zisusiwe, kwaye kwasekwa ukuhamba okwethutyana ngomthambo we-femoral wasekhohlo ukuze kugcinwe isigqi sentliziyo yakhe. Iinkcubeko ezivela kwi-pacemaker eyosulelekileyo zakhula i-Acinetobacter kunye ne-Enterobacter, nto leyo eyanceda ekulawuleni ukosuleleka ngakumbi. Nje ukuba iqela leengcali ezahlukeneyo lifumanise ukuba isigulana sikulungele ukuhambahamba ngokusisigxina, ukhetho lwesixhobo lwaqwalaselwa ngononophelo ngenxa yokosuleleka kwaso kwangaphambili kwe-pacemaker, isifo seswekile kunye nokuphola kwamanxeba okungasebenzi kakuhle. Ngomhla wama-24 ku-Agasti 2026, uGqr. U-Arora ufake inkqubo ye-Abbott AVEIR DR engenamachaphaza amabini nge-femoral vein yasekunene. Ngokungafaniyo nesixhobo sokuncedisa umgudu esiqhelekileyo, le nkqubo ayifuni sithuba sotyando phantsi kwesikhumba sesifuba okanye iileyiti ezidlula ngemithambo ziye entliziyweni. Endaweni yoko, le nkqubo isebenzisa izixhobo ezimbini ezincinci ezibekwe ngqo entliziyweni: enye kwi-atrium yasekunene nenye kwi-ventricle yasekunene. Ezi zixhobo zinxibelelana ngaphandle kwentambo ngokwesantya ukuya kwisantya, nto leyo evumela ukuba zilungelelanise amagumbi aphezulu nasezantsi kwaye zinike isantya samagumbi amabini. Isigulana sathunyelwa kwisibhedlele kwiiyure ezintandathu saza saphuma ngosuku olulandelayo. Xa zikhutshwa, ezi zixhobo zimbini zazinxibelelana ngokufanelekileyo kwaye iiparameter zokuhamba ngesantya kwaxelwa ukuba ziyanelisa. Ngokuphepha enye ipokotho yesifuba kunye neentambo ezijikelezayo, inkqubo engenalo intambo ibonelele ngenye indlela kwisigulana esinomngcipheko ophezulu wokosuleleka sisixhobo kwakhona kunye nokuphola kakubi kwamanxeba. Isantya esingenalo ilead asifanelekanga kuye wonke umntu, kwaye ukukhethwa kwesixhobo kuxhomekeke kwisifo sesigulo, i-anatomy, imeko yosulelo, iinkqubo zangaphambili kunye nemeko yeklinikhi iyonke. Eli tyala ligxininisa indlela ulawulo losulelo olunezifundo ezahlukeneyo, ulawulo lweemeko zonyango ezisisiseko kunye nokukhethwa kwesixhobo ngasinye esinokuxhasa ngayo unyango lwezigulane ezineemfuno ezinzima zokukhawuleza kwentliziyo.
