Gene- and cell-based bio-artificial pacemaker: what basic and translational lessons have we learned?
The heart beats with a regular rhythm to pump blood throughout the body. These mechanical actions require the highly coordinated efforts of different types of cardiomyocytes (CMs) such as atrial, ...
A pacemaker is a small electronic device that helps keep the heart beating regularly. It can represent a life-changing treatment for heart conditions such as arrhythmias. It is generally not too ...
As the search for Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy, continues, a cardiologist explains how pacemakers work and if they can be ...
Defibrillators use electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rate, especially in cases of life threatening arrhythmias or sudden cardiac arrest, while pacemakers use low-energy electrical pulses to ...
A pacemaker can greatly improve daily life, and many people can return to normal life quickly. However, it is important to maintain the device and be aware of certain lifestyle changes. A pacemaker is ...
Cardiac pacemakers are limited by device-related complications, notably infection and problems related to pacemaker leads. We studied a miniaturized, fully self-contained leadless pacemaker that is ...
CHICAGO — One person’s used pacemaker is another person’s treasure. A program to refurbish used pacemakers could expand access to the lifesaving devices. In a clinical trial of nearly 300 people, ...
Data from Nancy Guthrie's pacemaker has helped shed light on the events leading up to her kidnapping, but there are significant limits in how much data the devices can collect. Most importantly for ...
