requirement, condition for apply
[Acceptance Criteria]

1. Medical Information:
- Diagnosis (type of arrhythmia: tachycardia, bradycardia, atrial fibrillation, etc.)
- Details of symptoms (presence of palpitations, shortness of breath, fainting, dizziness, etc.)
- Test results from other facilities (e.g., ECG, Holter ECG, cardiac ultrasound, electrophysiological studies)
- Presence of comorbidities (e.g., heart failure, coronary artery disease, hypertension)

2. History of Treatment:
- Previous arrhythmia treatments (e.g., pacemaker implantation, catheter ablation, medication therapy)
- Current medications (e.g., antiarrhythmic drugs, anticoagulants)
- History of allergies or drug reactions

3. Age and Physical Condition:
- Confirm if elderly patients or those with underlying conditions have the physical capacity to undergo surgery or treatment.
- Evaluate overall health and cardiac function to determine if the patient can tolerate catheter-based treatment or surgery.

4. Treatment Duration, Days, and Time:
- Treatment schedule (hospitalization period for catheter ablation or pacemaker surgery, postoperative follow-up period)
- Estimate hospitalization duration and rehabilitation period after surgery.

5. Urgency:
- Determine if emergency care is required (e.g., life-threatening arrhythmia, need for implantable cardioverter defibrillator).
- Confirm cases requiring 24-hour emergency response.

6. Other Conditions:
- Suitability for specialized treatments such as cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for heart failure patients.
- Adjust treatment plans based on the patient’s lifestyle and preferences.

[Precautions and Contraindications]

1. Cases Not Suitable for Surgery or Treatment:
- Patients with severe comorbidities (e.g., untreated infections, advanced renal failure, cancer) may have limited indications for pacemaker implantation or catheter ablation.
- Catheter-based treatment may be challenging due to vascular conditions or anatomical characteristics of the heart.
- Patients unable to discontinue anticoagulants (e.g., those with high thrombosis risk) may face increased bleeding risks during treatment, requiring careful management.

2. Precautions Related to Medication Therapy:
- Patients taking anticoagulants or antiarrhythmic drugs must adhere to the prescribed discontinuation period before treatment. Following medical instructions is crucial.
- Patients with allergies or hypersensitivity to medications require special attention in drug selection and administration.

3. Contraindications for Pacemakers and Defibrillators:
- Strong electromagnetic fields (e.g., MRI) are contraindicated for pacemakers and defibrillators. Patients must avoid such environments after implantation.
- Mobile phones and electronic devices may interfere with the operation of pacemakers and defibrillators. Maintaining an appropriate distance during use is necessary.

[Important Pre-Treatment Information]

1. Preoperative Preparation:
- Preoperative tests (e.g., ECG, Holter ECG, electrophysiological studies) are essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning and must be completed.
- Follow the physician’s instructions regarding the discontinuation period for anticoagulants or antiarrhythmic drugs and manage appropriately.

2. Postoperative Complication Risks:
- Risks such as bleeding, infection, and thrombosis require adherence to postoperative instructions and immediate reporting of any abnormalities.
- Regular follow-ups and lifestyle management are crucial to address risks of recurrence or restenosis.

3. Lifestyle Precautions:
- After pacemaker implantation, avoid environments with strong electromagnetic fields (e.g., MRI machines, industrial equipment).
- Maintain a safe distance when using mobile phones and other electronic devices, as they may affect pacemaker or defibrillator function.

4. Hospitalization and Postoperative Schedule:
- Confirm the duration of hospitalization and rehabilitation before surgery and plan the postoperative lifestyle schedule accordingly.
- Follow instructions on activity and lifestyle restrictions after discharge.

5. Emergency Response:
- Contact a medical facility immediately if symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fainting occur after discharge.
- Confirm emergency medical facilities and contact information in advance.
