the removal of tonsils and the Appendix during childhood increases the risk of heart attack future.

according to a study published in the latest edition of the European Heart Journal.


– tonsillectomy and an appendectomy performed before age 20 increased the chances of suffering a heart attack by 44% and 33% respectively.

– both the tonsils and the appendix are secondary Lymphoid organs and play an important role in the immune system. This role seems to be greater during the first years of life.

– the results obtained in this study, conducted by researchers at the Department of public health of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm (Sweden), reaffirm the familiar relationship between inflammation and risk of disease cardiovascular.

-the Spanish society of Cardiology recommends only will extirpate the tonsils and the Appendix, bodies components of our immune system, when other treatments have not been fruitful.

Madrid, 2011-June according to a study recently published in the European Heart Journal, removal of the tonsils before age 20 increased by 44%, the risk of suffering a heart attack (AMI) while that the removal of the appendix does so in a 33%

both the tonsils and the appendix are considered secondary Lymphoid organs and components of the human immune system by which play an important role in the natural defence of the body against infections, with greater importance during the early years of life.

the removal of the tonsils and the appendix are common surgical procedures. Specifically, in our country between 10% and 20% of children receive any of these two operations.

“ although the exact mechanism is not yet known for sure, the authors of the study believe that the increase in the risk of stroke in an appendix or tonsils removed is as a result of the alteration which causes this surgery in the immune system ” emphasizes Dr. Alfonso Varela Román, Deputy Secretary of the society Spanish of cardiology.

“ that it becomes increasingly evident with studies such as this, is the role of inflammation in the development of arteriosclerosis, which in turn can lead to a heart attack ” continues Dr. Varela Román. “ the presence of inflammatory mediators in the coronary arteries favours the development of atheroma plaque and can trigger a heart attack ”.

“ is important to not alert the population about these interventions, as the only study suggests the existence of a possible causal relationship to it from the Spanish society of Cardiology recommended is that they only occur in cases in which another type of treatment has not been effective, avoiding preventive interventions, as various studies conducted in recent years, demonstrate that the removal of these secondary Lymphoid organs is not as harmless as you thought ” concludes Dr..

the study was conducted way back by researchers from the Department of public health of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm (Sweden). Analysed national health records of Sweden between 1955 and 1970, in which were 54.449 apendicectomías and 27.284 amigdalectomías made below 20.

new intelligent pacemakers remarkably improve the quality of life of patients with arrhythmias

-The EUROPACE Congress of the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA), which is being held from Sunday, 26 and until today, brings this year in Madrid the best specialists in rhythms from all over Europe

– sessions where helped the Spanish Cardiology Society (SEC), among the entitled “ The true benefits of CRM therapy are chronic, not short-term ”, which shows how to improve the safety and quality of life of patients with arrhythmias through new intelligent pacemakers who have arrived this year to Spain

– more than 34,000 pacemakers are implanted annually in our country. Due to the large number of functions of them and the lack of resources available to carry out a proper follow-up to the patients, the functions of the current pacemakers are bad and little exploited

-thank you will these smart pacemaker is optimize automatically the features of the device on a daily basis without having to wait for the annual visit to the specialist. This will improve the adaptation to the needs of the patient, reducing the feeling of fatigue, avoid dizziness and improving their ability of effort.

Madrid, June of 2011. The European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) being held in Madrid, from Sunday, 26 and until today Wednesday, June 29, meeting EUROPACE, in which there are cites the best specialists in rhythms from all over Europe.

Several members of the Spanish society of Cardiology (SEC) are actively participating in this meeting, collaborating as speakers or moderators in various sessions of the Congress.

Presentations, among the entitled “ The true benefits of CRM therapy are chronic, not short-term ” and moderated by Dr. Richard Becker, Internal Medicine Physician and Cardiovascular Disease Physician of Cortlandt Manor New York (NY), and Dr. Ignacio Fernández Lozano, section President, electrophysiology and arrhythmias from the SEC. It has made special emphasis on how innovations recently appeared in the field of the treatment of rhythm heart go to remarkably improve the management of patients with arrhythmias, taking advantage of all the functions available to the pacemaker and adapting constantly to the needs of the patient.

In our country are implanted annually more than 34,000 pacemaker, according to the national register of pacemakers. This figure is increasing, but the number of specialists responsible for the follow-up of the patients is not concurrently, so in most cases, patients visit only the specialist once a year, a poor review for proper optimization of the device you carry.

This fact makes the multiple roles that have a pacemaker use little and badly in most cases, missed many of the options that allows the device by the inability to take a routine control of the same.

“ Given the number of patients, is very difficult to optimize all pacemakers for each individual, which is why many times are they programmed in a generic way, but some patients need a specific programming that his pacemaker is better suited to his heart, getting the proper frequency control ”, says Dr. Fernández Lozano.

Fortunately, increasingly are new devices that facilitate the management of patients with arrhythmias. Since January, already found in Spain intelligent pacemaker that daily adjust their functions automatically, constantly adapting to the needs of the patient without obligation visit to a specialist, unless there is no complication.

“ This new family of devices achieve these sick heart work better, increasing its capacity of effort, reducing the feeling of fatigue and avoiding the appearance of dizziness ”, notes Fernández Lozano.

Also, pacemakers and defibrillators for remote monitoring, who came to Spain a few years ago, help a lot to the control of this type of patient. After introducing the device to the patient, a console, connected to the landline or mobile, that he must leave on the night table is provided to you. The device obtains data from the pacemaker while the patient sleeps, analyses them and sends them to a web page to which the physician has daily access. If there any alarming data (tachycardia, displacement of some cable, battery empty …) specialist receives an SMS or an email automatically.

“ Thanks to all these devices, the safety of the patient with arrhythmia is improving greatly ”, concludes Dr. Fernández Lozano.
