pacemaker AID - mimtt

Posted: Jul 01, 2010

I am not quite awake this morning and this doctor slurs all his words together. He says under past surgical hx. "pacemaker A.I.D." and I'm not sure if that is all one procedure or if the A.I.D. is another surgery. I'm not able to find a surgery labeled as that, so I'm getting more and more confused by the minute.

thanks in advance!

He pretty clearly says AID, but I'll bet that's it. Thanks!
