4.0 FOLLOWING IMPLANTATION
You must become actively involved in your own recovery by following your
doctor’s instructions carefully, including:
Report any redness, swelling, or drainage from your incision to
your doctor.
Avoid lifting heavy objects until instructed by your doctor.
Walk, exercise, and bathe according to your doctor’s instructions.
Be sure to contact your doctor if you develop a fever that persists
for more than two or three days.
Ask your doctor any questions you may have about your device,
heart rhythm, or medications. Be sure to take all medications as
directed by your doctor.
Do not wear tight clothing that could irritate the skin over the
device.
Avoid rubbing the device or the surrounding chest area.
If directed by your doctor, limit any arm movements that may
affect the implanted lead system.
Avoid rough contact that could result in blows to the implant site. If
you fall or are in an accident that results in an impact to the
implant site, contact your doctor.
Note:
If you have a slender build, your implanted device may
appear more prominently under the skin. If this is the case, extra
care should be taken to avoid any direct blows to your implant
site.
Contact your doctor if you notice anything unexpected or unusual
such as new symptoms.
Inform your doctor if you plan to engage in long-distance travel.
If you plan to change your place of residence, inform your doctor,
and discuss the need for a referral in the new area.
