Leadless pacemaker and cremation [PDF]

Heart Asia, 2015
Implantable cardiac pacemakers save lives and improve quality of life. Each year about a million pacemakers are implanted worldwide, a quarter of them in the USA. Over the past 50 years several innovations have taken place in the miniaturisation of the pacemaker including circuitry, battery and lead systems.
