Pacemaker

A Pacemaker typically is implanted in the upper chest. It does not require open heart surgery, most people go home withen 24 hours before surgery; the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Pacemakers generally treat two types of arrhythmias –

• Tachycardia, or a heart beat that’s too fast (above 100 beat/ min).
• Bradycardia, or a heart beat that’s too slow (below 60 beat/min).

Symptoms :

• Fatigue
• Fainting or lightheadedness
• Shortness of breath
• Damage to vital orgen

The electrical impulse travels from the top of the heart to the bottom, signaling the heart’s muscles to contract. A pacemaker can also track and record your heart beat. This can help your doctor get a better understanding of arrhythmia.

Not all pacemakers are permanent. Temporary pacemakers can control certain types of problems.
