Treatment with a novel, minimally invasive brain pacemaker cut seizure frequency by at least 50% in patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy, new research shows. The meta-analysis examined data ...

The heart may be small, but its rhythm powers life. When something throws that rhythm off—especially after surgery—it can become a race against time to restore balance. For decades, doctors have ...

This week Cambridge Consultants unveiled a semi-leadless pacemaker it designed for start-up EBR Systems. The device, called Wireless Cardiac Stimulation system (WiCS), includes a leadless electrode ...

A team at Northwestern University (NU) has developed a pacemaker small enough to fit inside the tip of a syringe and be non-invasively injected into the body. Although it can work with hearts of all ...

Smaller than a grain of rice, new pacemaker is particularly suited to the small, fragile hearts of newborn babies with congenital heart defects. Tiny pacemaker is paired with a small, soft, flexible ...

Leadless pacemaker technology represents a significant advancement in cardiac rhythm management, eliminating the need for transvenous leads and reducing many of the complications associated with ...

Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...
