MANCHESTER, UK — There have been many recent advances in cardiac rhythm management, notably the use of leadless pacemakers and subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs), experts ...

Patients who require a new permanent pacemaker after TAVI do just as well with leadless devices out to 2 years as they do with transvenous pacemakers, according to an analysis of real-world data from ...

Patients receiving leadless pacemakers experience overall fewer short-term and mid-term complications than those receiving traditional transvenous pacemakers, a new study found. Patients receiving ...

Patients who received a leadless pacemaker had similar rates of acute complications and survival at 30 days as those who received a transvenous VVI pacemaker, according to data presented at the ...

A leadless right-ventricular pacemaker continued to show an edge over conventional transvenous pacemakers by triggering a substantially reduced rate of complications during the 6 months following ...

Mechanical and electrical energy are linked and can be exchanged back and forth. Just like ultrasound converts electrical voltage into pressure or sound, we can engineer similar materials onto ...

A leadless intracardiac transcatheter pacing system has been designed to avoid the need for a pacemaker pocket and transvenous lead. In a prospective multicenter study without controls, a ...
