Pacemaker Placement

Cardiac pacemakers are small devices that function as smart computers, which are implanted under the patient’s skin (usually under the clavicle), and which are connected by wires to the heart.

They are able to detect the electrical activity of the slow heart and send an electrical signal to stimulate it.

Electrophysiology Study

Invasive test that helps doctors understnad the nature of cardiac arrhythmias and thus offer a specific treatment.

A catheter is inserted into the veins of the inguinal region, which travels to the heart, where it generates small electrical stimuli and records how it responds to them.
