Solutions to the Challenges of Conduction System Pacing
Conduction system pacing is a new way of stimulating the heart using pacemaker wires. Traditional pacemakers stimulate the heart muscle which causes disordered heart beats: the walls of the heart move at different times. This wears down the heart over time. Conduction system pacemakers stimulate the heart's electrical system directly …
