  2. Pacemaker syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

    [17] [18] [19] The name pacemaker syndrome was first coined by Erbel in 1979. [18] [20] Since its first discovery, there have been many definitions of pacemaker syndrome, and the understanding of the cause of pacemaker syndrome is still under investigation. In a general sense, pacemaker syndrome can be defined as the symptoms associated with ...

  3. Pacemaker crosstalk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_crosstalk

    Crosstalk can only occur in a dual chamber or biventricular pacemaker. It happens less often in more recent models of dual chamber pacemakers due to the addition of a ventricular blanking period, which coincides with the atrial stimulus. This helps to prevent ventricular channel oversensing of atrial output.

  4. Artificial cardiac pacemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_cardiac_pacemaker

    Biventricular pacemaker. This pacemaker has three wires placed in three chambers of the heart. One in the atrium and two in either ventricle. It is more complicated to implant. [10] Rate-responsive pacemaker. This pacemaker has sensors that detect changes in the patient's physical activity and automatically adjust the pacing rate to fulfill the ...

  5. Pacemaker failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_failure

    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 longer because of this more complicated pacemaker system.

  6. Cardiac pacemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_pacemaker

    An artificial cardiac pacemaker (or artificial pacemaker, so as not to be confused with the natural cardiac pacemaker) or just pacemaker is an implanted medical device that generates electrical impulses delivered by electrodes to the chambers of the heart either the upper atria, or lower ventricles to cause the targeted chambers to contract and ...

    Other forms of cardiac pacing are transvenous pacing, epicardial pacing, [5] and permanent pacing with an implantable pacemaker. In addition to synchronized transcutaneous pacing offered by newer cardiac monitor/defibrillators, there is also an option for asynchronous pacing.
