Study to evaluate whether a new approach to pacing the heart can improve the lives of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who have limited treatment options today ...

The use of pacemakers continues to grow as populations worldwide are living longer. It is estimated that around one million devices are implanted globally every year. Pacemakers are electrical devices ...

Much has happened in the field of cardiac pacing and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) since 2013, and that’s reflected in updated guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), ...

Personalized accelerated pacing at 75 bpm showed a reduction in adverse clinical events in HFpEF patients compared to standard 60 bpm pacing. The per-protocol analysis indicated significantly fewer ...

Vienna, 30 March 2025– The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) has released a groundbreaking consensus statement on conduction system pacing (CSP), marking a significant milestone in the evolution of ...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Attendees of Heart Rhythm 2022 heard results from numerous studies investigating the impact of conduction-system pacing, which includes both His-bundle and left bundle branch (LBB) ...

Engineers have taken their transient pacemaker and integrated it into a coordinated network of four soft, flexible, wireless wearable sensors and control units placed on different anatomically ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers devised a non-invasive optogenetic and wearable cardiac pacemaker for accurate and specific control of cardiac rhythm for ≤900 beats per ...

Cardiac pacemakers are battery-dependent, where the pacing leads are prone to introduce valve damage and infection. In addition, complete pacemaker retrieval is necessary for battery replacement.

Last summer, Northwestern University researchers introduced the first-ever transient pacemaker — a fully implantable, wireless device that harmlessly dissolves in the body after it’s no longer needed.
