Intuitionistic Fuzzy Biofeedback Control of Implanted Dual-Sensor Cardiac Pacemakers [PDF]

Bioengineering
Cardiac pacemakers are used for handling bradycardia, which is a cardiac rhythm of usually less than 60 beats per minute. Therapeutic dual-sensor pacemakers aim to preserve or restore the normal electromechanical activity of the cardiac muscle.

Syncope in Patients with Cardiac Pacemakers [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2020
Introduction: It is challenging to diagnose syncope in patients with pacemakers. Because these patients have increased morbidity and mortality risks, they require immediate attention to determine the causes in order to provide appropriate treatment. This

Evolution of cardiac pacemakers: a journey from Galvanic experiments to leadless pacemakers

Heart Vessels and Transplantation, 2023
The development of cardiac pacemakers has a rich history spanning over two centuries, beginning with Luigi Galvani's discovery of the heart's response to electrical currents in the late 18th century.

Tricuspid Valve Replacement in a Patient with a Leadless Cardiac Pacemaker: Current Guidelines and Recommendations for Perioperative Management

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, 2021
Leadless cardiac pacemakers were developed to reduce complications associated with conventional transvenous pacemakers. While this technology is still relatively new, devices are increasingly being implanted. The perioperative management of patients with

On the Evolution of the Cardiac Pacemaker [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017
The rhythmic contraction of the heart is initiated and controlled by an intrinsic pacemaker system. Cardiac contractions commence at very early embryonic stages and coordination remains crucial for survival. The underlying molecular mechanisms of pacemaker cell development and function are still not fully understood.

Data deluge from remote monitoring of cardiac implantable electronic devices and importance of clinical stratification

Heart Rhythm O2, 2023
Background: Remote monitoring (RM) has been accepted as a standard of care for follow-up of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). However, the resulting data deluge poses major challenge to device clinics.

Symbiotic cardiac pacemaker [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
AbstractSelf-powered implantable medical electronic devices that harvest biomechanical energy from cardiac motion, respiratory movement and blood flow are part of a paradigm shift that is on the horizon. Here, we demonstrate a fully implanted symbiotic pacemaker based on an implantable triboelectric nanogenerator, which achieves energy harvesting and ...
