A pacemaker is a medical device used to regulate a person’s heart rhythm. It is used when the heart cannot maintain a regular rhythm on its own.
The pacemaker emits electrical impulses that stimulate the heart and help maintain an adequate rhythm.
It is placed in the chest, near the heart, through a small surgery. The pacemaker constantly monitors the heart rhythm and sends electrical signals when necessary. This helps the heart function properly and allows the person to lead a normal life.
