• Bradycardia – Slow heart rate
• Heart Block – Delay or complete block in the electrical signal between the heart’s chambers
• Atrial Fibrillation with Slow Rate
• Syncope (Fainting) due to arrhythmias
• Certain conditions after heart surgery

Types of Pacemakers

• Single-Chamber Pacemaker– Controls either the right atrium or right ventricle.
• Dual-Chamber Pacemaker– Controls both the atrium and ventricle, coordinating their function.
• Biventricular Pacemaker (CRT)– Used for patients with heart failure to help the ventricles contract more effectively.

Procedure Overview

• The patient is given local anesthesia and light sedation.
• A small incision is made near the collarbone.
• The pacemaker leads are guided through a vein into the heart using X-ray imaging.
• The leads are connected to the pacemaker device, which is then implanted under the skin.
• The device is programmed and tested before completing the procedure.

Recovery & Aftercare

• Most patients go home within 24 hours.
• Avoid heavy lifting and vigorous arm movements for a few weeks.
• Regular follow-up is required to monitor device function.
• Lifestyle adjustments may be recommended for heart health.

Benefits of Pacemaker Implantation

• Restores normal heart rhythm
• Reduces symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, and fainting
• Improves exercise tolerance and quality of life
• Prevents complications from slow or irregular heartbeats

Risks & Considerations

Though generally safe, pacemaker implantation may have rare risks such as:

• Infection at the implant site
• Lead dislodgement
• Allergic reaction to medications or materials
• Bleeding or swelling

Your cardiologist will discuss the benefits and risks in detail to ensure the procedure is right for you.
