Modern Pacemakers: Implantable Artificial Intelligence?
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1988For over twenty years computer programs have been written for applications in cardiology. Approximately one decode ago the first Expert Systems using knowledge on cardiology were built. The use of Expert System shells enabled a breakthrough. Many systems were developed, each covering a small part of cardiology.

2017 Third International Conference on Science Technology Engineering & Management (ICONSTEM), 2017
An artificial cardiac pacemaker is a medical device used for regulating the beating of the heart by using the electrical impulses delivered by the electrodes on contraction of the heart. The pacemaker used at present produces a fixed heart beat and it does not vary according to human activities.

Simulation and rectification of an artificial pacemaker
2013 1st International Conference on Communications, Signal Processing, and their Applications (ICCSPA), 2013The simulation of an artificial pacemaker is presented in terms of digital waveforms which represent the analogous heartbeat and its verification using Verilog coding. The output will be in terms of any rectifications required in the simulation and its final results will conclude in a regular heartbeat with pacing if required.

Radiotherapy to patients with artificial cardiac pacemakers
Cancer Treatment Reviews, 2005The in vitro studies show that the modern cardiac pacemakers utilising the complementary metal-oxide semi-conductor (CMOS) circuitry can be adversely affected by therapeutic radiation. However, the published clinical data are sparse regarding the safety of radiotherapy delivery to patients with artificial pacemakers.

The Artificial Pacemaker: A Life-Giver
2021Since the advent of electricity, it was postulated that control of the heartbeat could potentially save countless lives. But artificially pacing the heart remained a dream for most of human history. In this chapter, the author discusses the contributions of inventors in the field of cardiac pacing from the mid-twentieth century to today.

The Vectorcardiographic Findings in Patients with Artificial Pacemakers
Diseases of the Chest, 1968SUMMARY The vectorcardiographic findings in 20 cases with artificial pacemakers (intravenous or implanted) are presented. In patients with implanted pacemakers, the vectorcardiogram displays two major patterns: (a) the main QRS loop is directed to the right, anteriorly and inferiorly; (b) the QRS loop is located mainly in the right posterosuperior ...

Tachycardia and Death Due to an Artificial Pacemaker
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1965Excerpt Chronic complete heart block is compatible with life as long as a steady idioventricular rhythm continues and the beat remains above 40/min.

Depression of artificial pacemakers by extraneous impulses
American Heart Journal, 1967Abstract Analysis of iatrogenic electrical arrhythmias serves to validate the assumptions postulated through the study of clinical electrocardiograms. Other disorders of rhythm, without clinical counterpart, have also become apparent. The recently introduced demand pacemaker functions as a pacemaker that is artificial and automatic, yet not ...

Cardiac arrhythmias related to artificial pacemakers
Journal of Electrocardiology, 1971Summary Various cardiac arrhythmias related to artificial pacemakers are described in detail, and representative electrocardiographic illustrations are presented. The importance of recognizing malfunction of various pacemakers has been emphasized. An early manifestation of malfunction should be suspected even when the pre-set rate is altered by only ...
