Avatar f tn I have a sick sinus condition and I'm in my last year of battery power. What might my symptoms be when the pacemaker is no longer functional? It's a dual lead, programmable Medtronic pacemaker.
Avatar m tn So, I use a CPAP & a few weeks ago I must have fallen asleep while driving as I lost about 15 seconds while driving. A week after that something similiar happened. Then a few days after that I lost a period of time on the table saw & ground up my thumb. I will be doing a home study in a few days with a different machine...Thoughts?
586101 tn?1239680323 As far as I know, I'm not aware of any studies linking all three. But one thing that obstructive sleep apnea can do is to aggravate almost every other condition. Sleep apnea causes a chronic low-grade stress response, which can definitely affect your immune system. It's also been shown that if you have sleep apnea, the vacuum forces that are created can suck up normal stomach juices into your throat, which can in small amounts go into your lungs and sinuses, causing inflammation.
648944 tn?1241469694 From what I've read on a site devoted to cpap (cpaptalk) some of the older machines are workhorses and some report length of service similar to yours. It would not hurt to plan for the day it does "give up the ghost". Have you had it checked to make sure it is still outputting the proper pressure? Also, many of the newer machines capture treatment data so that you can know if your treatment is effective, and some even have available software so you can monitor it yourself.
Avatar f tn My pacemaker battery had been dead for over a year and a half, and I just now was told that the pacemaker will have to be removed because it can damage the heart if it doesn't have a battery. Is this true? Incidentally, my pacemaker had not been activated for several years, as it was set for the minimum and didn't ever have to kick in.
148588 tn?1465778809 We are approaching a tipping point at which the falling cost of solar energy and improving battery technology will transform the way we power our lives, turning homes into generators and cars into moving power storage units. It will hugely disrupt the business of producing and distributing electricity and it will bring about the gradual eclipse of the age of oil. The know-how is already here, says UBS, and the cost, which once seemed prohibitive, now looks manageable.
Avatar f tn I just had a medical aid representative come to my house with a selection of power chairs. I test drove them and decided to buy a Pride 3 Jet Ultra but I can't get it yet as it has to have a modification to make it legal to transport in a maxi taxi. I'm hoping to have it the week after next. I'm just after a bit of comparison here. This wheelchair is going to cost me $4,000 plus another $300 for the modification.
176495 tn?1301280412 my wife was kind enough to wake me at 2AM to tell me the power was out.."so, what am I gonna do about it) we have a triple backup sump pump system with a battery back up that will pump 43000 gallons before dying" "The fish"..we have 2 aquaria, one a 30 and one a 55 and we just added some new fish...the temp before outage was 80 in the water..so I had to go down and wrap blankets around the tanks.
Avatar f tn Its battery can be charged wirelessly, without plugging it in. The system works a lot like your electric toothbrush. A special dock (available as a $200 option) has a coil of wire inside that matches up with a coil on the bottom of the Latitude Z. When the two coils come in contact, power is transferred over that small distance through induction.
Avatar m tn s been going on with your heart and also find out how much battery power is left. When the battery reaches a certain low level, they schedule you to have the unit replaced. Obviously, the more often the pacer is used, the sooner you'll have to have it replaced. My Dad's unit lasted about 5 years. Pacing full time like yours would probably be sooner. Just like a flashlight - the more you use it, the sooner the batteries run down.
176495 tn?1301280412 We've been without power since 1145PM Thursday and it just came back on today (Saturday) around 5PM..thankfully my generator performed well and we had one nice warm room, a working fridge and happy fish with warm water in their tanks..also thanks to our battery back up sooper dooper whizbang very expensive basement water proofing system, the basement is dry as a bone...absolutely the best investment we ever made...

Avatar f tn Spinal cord stimulator is a device inserted into epidural space or over the spinal cord with an Implantable power generator (IPG) under the skin of the lower abdomen or gluteal region. It is a method of giving controlled analgesia on demand. It is helpful in patients with inoperable back pain or limb pain. Normally the battery lasts 6-8 years. If you opt for re-chargeable battery (which is costlier), this will last 12-14 years.
867582 tn?1311627397 Hi, all! I'd been napping pretty regularly and getting to bed early, but I guess after my meeting the the "big kahuna neurologist" earlier this week, it just set me off - his saying I didn't have MS. So I thought, okay, if I don't have it, then I don't have to waste any more of my daylight hours on naps - hurray!! So for the past two days I did not nap - oh, it was delicious! I could get lots more done that way - I got my car inspected etc.
Avatar n tn There are two possible solutions: move to one of the new mini CPAP masks. Second use Refresh PM ointment in both eyes at bedtime and Refresh or Systane ULTRA artifical tears on awakening.

Avatar m tn You should be fine. 220 power is the one that would really hurt you. Stove/oven or dryer and your electric panel. Be careful, and unplug always before touching power.
Avatar f tn My son just turned 2 on the 5th. He is super into blocks. We got him a little wagon that he can build and carry the leggo blocks in. He loves it. We got it at Walmart. Also, anything musical. He loves his guitars and drums!
Avatar f tn and have an effective radiated power exceeding 1 Watt. This is a far greater power level than the power emitted from Bluetooth devices. I'm curious if you have ever been warned about these devices?
