The development of artificial pacemakers for the electrical control of the cardiac rhythm has greatly enhanced the physician's ability to treat cardiac dysrhythmias. Pacemakers have been useful in treating Stokes-Adams syndrome and symptomatic bradyeardias; they have helped control the occurrence of tachyarrhythmias and have played an important role in

Wireless Charger for Artificial Pacemaker [PDF]
The vast majority of the modernized implantable devices and Bio-sensors are set inside a patient’s body. To overcome this constraint, in this paper we have designed a rechargeable battery with wireless power transfer technique. The transdermal power transfer for the Pacemaker which is placed inside the heart should be possible by the concept of mutual ...

Problems of artificial pacemaker therapy.
Four hundred and sixty-seven cases with implantation of an artificial pacemaker were studied. The postoperative survival rate was 63% for 15 years. Seventy-two percent of type III patients of the sick sinus syndrome were free from postoperative thromboembolism and the lowest of the three types of the sick sinus syndrome.
