Pacemaker Implantation
What is a Pacemaker?
A pacemaker is a small medical device implanted under the skin to help control slow or irregular heartbeats(bradycardia or heart blocks). It sends gentle electrical signals to the heart to ensure it beats at a normal rhythm and rate.
Pacemaker Implantation is a minimally invasive procedure that can significantly improve symptoms like dizziness, fainting, fatigue, and even prevent sudden cardiac events.
At Nidaan Heart Clinic, Vadodara, we specialize in the safe and precise implantation of single-chamber, dual-chamber, and biventricular pacemakers, depending on the patient’s condition.
Who Needs a Pacemaker?
Pacemakers are commonly recommended for patients with:
-
Bradycardia (abnormally slow heart rate)
-
Heart blocks (electrical signals not reaching lower chambers)
-
Fainting episodes due to irregular heart rhythm
-
Fatigue or breathlessness with slow pulse
-
History of heart attack or heart surgery with conduction issues
-
Advanced heart failure, in which biventricular pacing (CRT) is needed
✅ A pacemaker can help regulate your heartbeat, prevent symptoms, and improve quality of life — especially in older adults or high-risk heart patients.
-
You’ll be taken to a specialized cardiac procedure room
-
Local anesthesia is given — the procedure is not painful
-
A small incision is made below the collarbone
-
One or more electrode leads are inserted into the heart through a vein
-
The pacemaker is connected and placed under the skin
-
The entire procedure takes about 60–90 minutes
-
You’ll stay overnight for monitoring and be discharged next day in most cases
🏥 The pacemaker starts working immediately and is adjusted externally for optimal rhythm control.
What Happens During a Pacemaker Implantation?
-
Prevents fainting, fatigue, and dizziness
-
Restores regular heart rhythm and pulse rate
-
Enables safer daily activities and exercise
-
Reduces risk of sudden cardiac complications
-
Improves heart function in selected heart failure patients
-
Long battery life: 8–12 years, with regular follow-ups
Benefits of a Pacemaker
Final Message from the Cardiologist
An irregular or slow heartbeat can make daily life unpredictable — but a pacemaker can restore rhythm and confidence.
“A pacemaker is not just a device — it’s a second chance at living life without fear of the next heartbeat.”
If you or a loved one has been told the heart rate is too slow or irregular, let’s evaluate whether a pacemaker is the right step forward.
