Heart Diagnosis & Heart Diseases


Persons with implanted heart devices resume their normal daily activities after full recovery from cardiac surgery. However, there may be certain situations that your doctor will ask you to avoid. Physicians and Medical practitioners will provide guidance for your particular condition, but these are some general guidelines to follow after complete recovery. With any medical procedure, there are risks involved in a heart device implant and the results may vary. Talk to your doctor about any specific concerns or activities — such as returning to work or participating in exercise or sports — that you may have. After receiving your heart device you may also have to be under medication as directed by your physician and periodically your doctor will need to monitor your device.
