Pacemaker Pacemaker

Pacemaker

A Pacemaker is a device which is recommended by cardiologists to control the heartbeat. It works in enhancing the heartbeat if your heart is beating too slowly. Your cardiologist may recommend the type of pacemaker you might require based on your prevailing health condition. Commonly, there are three types of pacemakers viz.

  • Single chamber pacemaker
  • Dual chamber pacemaker
  • Biventricular pacemaker (recommended for people who suffer from heart failure)
  • How do I prepare

Tests conducted before the Pacemaker Installation

Pacemaker surgery doctors in Bangalore associated with Sanjeevini Hospital follow a systematic process when it comes to Pacemaker installation. You may be recommended the following tests before the procedure.

  • Electrocardiogram to check the heartbeat
  • Holter Monitoring to detect the frequency and timings of variable heartbeats
  • Echocardiogram to take images of heart size and function
  • Treadmill stress test

Significance of having a Pacemaker

Pacemaker doctors in Bangalore indicate that having the device installed is an excellent solution to maintaining a steady heartbeat.  A very slow heartbeat can lead to conditions like fatigue, feeling light headed and fainting. Because most of today’s pacemakers automatically adjust the heart rate to match the level of physical activity, they may allow you to resume a more active lifestyle.

Your cardiologist will monitor how the pacemaker is doing, once every 3-5 months. Bring it to the notice of your doctor if you notice any steady variations in your health after the installation.

Most pacemakers can be checked by your doctor remotely, which means you don’t have to go into the doctor’s office. Your pacemaker sends data to your doctor, including your heart rate and rhythm, how your pacemaker is working, and how much battery life is left.
