   [1] [3] In general, the symptoms of the syndrome are a combination of decreased cardiac output, loss of atrial contribution to ventricular filling, loss of total peripheral resistance response, and nonphysiologic pressure waves. [2] [4] [5] Individuals with a low heart rate prior to pacemaker implantation are more at risk of developing ...

3. Pacemaker failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_failure

   A pacemaker uses electrical impulses delivered by electrodes in order to contract the heart muscles. [1] Failure of a pacemaker is defined by the requirement of repeat surgical pacemaker-related procedures after the initial implantation. Most implanted pacemakers are dual chambered and have two leads, causing the implantation time to take ...

7. Cardiac contractility modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_contractility...

   Heart failure is a chronic disease that usually progresses gradually. [20] The rate of progression and the degree of symptoms of the disease varies between different patients. Cardiac contractility modulation therapy aims to treat heart failure through a medium- to long-term treatment, over the course of weeks and months. [citation needed]
