Symbiotic cardiac pacemaker [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 Implantable medical electronic devices are limited by battery lifetime and inflexibility, but self-powered devices can harvest biomechanical energy. Here the authors demonstrate cardiac pacing and correction of sinus arrhythmia with a symbiotic cardiac ...

Minithoracotomy as the primary alternative for left ventricular lead implantation during cardiac resynchronization therapy: Can the cardiac surgeon reduce the number of nonresponders [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2017 Introduction/Objective. Numerous anomalies of the cardiac venous system prevent the optimal endovascular implantation of the left ventricular (LV) lead in more than 15% of patients with indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Endogenous driving and synchronization in cardiac and uterine virtual tissues: bifurcations and local coupling [PDF]
, 2006 Cardiac and uterine muscle cells and tissue can be either autorhythmic or excitable. These behaviours exchange stability at bifurcations produced by changes in parameters, which if spatially localized can produce an ectopic pacemaking focus.
