Possibly the most worrisome issue in the report are the two pulmonary embolisms. Until this report, I was aware of only one case, ending badly. Was this one of those two or are there now three . . . what happened of these two?

My understanding is pulmonary embolisms are always a surgical risk and people who live a sedentary lifestyle have a greater risk. So far no clear connection between the pacer and these embolisms are evident in the documentation I can find on the web. The first occurred within the thirty day surgery period; I can only find they occurred in the report, but not when, as yet.
