Pacemaker Implantation
Pacemaker implantation is a surgical procedure where a small electronic device is placed in the chest to regulate abnormal heart rhythms. It helps control arrhythmias by sending electrical impulses to prompt the heart to beat at a normal rate. Pacemakers are commonly recommended for bradycardia, heart block, or after certain heart surgeries. The procedure is typically minimally invasive and significantly improves quality of life and survival.
Single-Chamber Pacemaker – Connects to one chamber of the heart, usually the right ventricle.
Dual-Chamber Pacemaker – Connects to both the right atrium and right ventricle to maintain coordination.
Biventricular Pacemaker (CRT) – Used for heart failure, synchronizing both sides of the heart to improve function.
Pacemaker implantation is recommended after diagnosing rhythm disorders through tests like electrocardiogram (ECG), Holter monitoring, echocardiography, or an electrophysiology (EP) study, confirming slow or irregular heart rhythms needing correction.
