After bypass, patient had an atrial "clearing" device put in. - Jude


Posted: Oct 31, 2009

After bypass, the atrial "clearing" device was put in.  He had a pleural effusion that was drained.  He had a recent x-ray that was okay.

Thanks for any help.

I am aware that Medtronic and St. Jude are in the cardiac device business, but I am not familiar with an atrial clearing device.

Consider "aortic filtering device"...sm - elaine

Clearing Up VR Training Confusion
Nov 13, 2012

We need to clear some things up for new people, or those who have only done straight MT and will soon be doing VR.  VR DOES NOT require special intensive training, other than, of course, you still need to know how to be an MT.  That being said, make believe you typed a letter in your word processing program and you noticed a ton of errors when you went to proof it.  You would just fix them, right?
