A pacemaker is a small, battery-powered device implanted in the chest to help regulate abnormal heart rhythms, known as arrhythmias. It ensures that the heart beats at a normal rate and rhythm, improving overall heart function and quality of life for patients experiencing bradycardia (slow heart rate) or other conduction abnormalities.
The pacemaker consists of a pulse generator, which produces electrical impulses, and leads (wires) that deliver these impulses to the heart muscles. The device continuously monitors the heart's rhythm and delivers electrical stimulation when it detects an abnormality.
Pacemaker implantation is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia with mild sedation. Dr. Sharma begins by making a small incision near the collarbone to create a pocket for the pacemaker device. The leads are carefully guided through a vein to the heart, where they are securely attached to the heart muscle. The pulse generator is then connected to the leads and placed in the pocket under the skin.
The procedure typically takes about one to two hours. Most patients can go home the same day or the next, with a recovery period of about a week before returning to normal activities.
