An implantable system that includes a pulse generator (pacemaker) and one or two leads. The system delivers pacing pulses to the heart when the patient's own rate is too slow to pump enough blood to the body.
Industry:Medical devices
An electrically insulated conductor that carries signals between the pulse generator (pacemaker) and the heart. Some leads enter the heart through a vein, and other leads attach to the outer surface of the heart.
Industry:Medical devices
A pulse generator with one or two special sensors designed to recognize changes in the body, such as motion or respiratory patterns. The adaptive-rate pacemaker monitors these body changes and alters the pacing rate accordingly.
Industry:Medical devices
A pacemaker with two leads that can pace and/or sense in two chambers to correct slow heart rhythms. One lead is placed in the right atrium; the other is placed in the right ventricle.
