Bradycardia is a lot more common than generally believed, but is often asymptomatic and not clinically relevant, and may lead to needless pacemaker therapy, suggests a post-hoc analysis of a major ...

Researchers at Northwestern University just found a way to make a temporary pacemaker that’s controlled by light—and it’s smaller than a grain of rice. A study on the new device, published last week ...

LONDON, England—New research has identified several high-risk variables associated with the need for a new permanent pacemaker after TAVI for aortic stenosis. None on the list are among the more ...

Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...

Smaller than a grain of rice, new pacemaker is particularly suited to the small, fragile hearts of newborn babies with congenital heart defects. Tiny pacemaker is paired with a small, soft, flexible ...

The tiny pacemaker sits next to a single grain of rice on a fingertip. The device is so small that it can be non-invasively injected into the body via a syringe. Northwestern University engineers have ...
