Profile of the key figure pacemaker and defibrillator (implantation and replacement), patient number

About the indicator «Specific patient numbers»

Number of patients with a specific diagnosis or intervention (per calendar year).

Strengths:

High patient numbers with a specific diagnosis or intervention is a indicator for good knowledge and expertise. A hospital with high specific patient numbers has a lot of experience with different techniques of diagnosis and treatment (e.g. surgeries). Additionally, high specific patient numbers suggest that employees and technical equipment are up to date.

Limits:

Unfortunately, specific patient numbers are not available for all interventions. It is not sure that results are transferable to similar interventions. Also, the relationship between patient numbers and experience/competency is not linear. Especially with very high specific patient numbers the expertise and knowledge does not increase in equal measure.

Very careful and competent examination in cardiology. After emergency admission and cardiological clarifications I experienced rapid administrative processing and planning of further action. 

About the surgery:

Insertion of pacemaker, timely surgery, problem-free process. Very good pre- and postoperative care. Not the first operation in Uster, again very satisfied! Good long-term cardiological care over 12 years by a cardiologist. Uster Hospital team. (surgeon: Dr. Alexander Westphalen)

Cardiology Dr Mutter Incompetent, ignores what has been agreed. What happened in the surgery room is serious body harm. I had to look around for another clinic and had to be operated a third time. Inhumane this doctor. Not recommended. 

About the surgery:
starstarstarstarstar
Pacemaker, slipped after 1st intervention, 2nd intervention went very differently than agreed, pacemaker incorrectly placed and went through hell during surgery because I was denied sleep, the answer was too short; anesthesia was not sufficient; went to other Clinic which is great.

Alltogether I've spent a few weeks in this hospital during the last 22 years. My experience is consistently positive. Information, surgery, or examinations, I was always looked after in a competent and friendly manner 

About the surgery:

Already four times I was implanted a defibrillator. The OP's always went easy. I was also fully happy with the rectum-surgery. Simply SUPER!

starstarstarstarstar
Because of cardiac arrhythmias, I had a pacemaker implanted on November 2nd. A short “thing” of just under an hour. Thanks to the partial anesthesia, I was able to follow the interesting operation. Excellent work was done by PD Dr. Winnik and his team (also before the operation).  

About the surgery:
starstarstarstarstar
Removal of the event recorder, pacemaker implant. Everything went great, the extreme tiredness is now gone and I'm recovering quickly. I only feel a kind of muscle soreness in my left arm. Since there will be no more fainting spells, I will move much more confidently. (surgeon: Dr. Stephan Winnik)
