(B) A schematic diagram of the microtubular pacemaker is fabricated by a self-assembling process, which benefits from the self-adhesiveness of SEBS polymer layer. (C) An optical image of an f-PCB film ...

In the normal heart, the lower chambers (ventricles) pump at the same time and in sync with the heart's upper chambers (atria). Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), also called biventricular ...

In the normal heart, the heart's lower chambers (ventricles) pump in sync with the heart's upper chambers (atria). When a person has heart failure, often the right and left ventricles do not pump ...

image: This is a schematic showing the effect of pacemaker-induced transient asynchrony (PITA) on sarcomere structure (images) and cardiomyocyte function (curves) in a failing heart. Both are ...

Schematics.com is a new, free website that offers an on-line schematic entry tool. There’s not much new about that, except that designs on this new site are made freely available to the public.

The cardiac pacemaker harmlessly dissolves over the course of 35 days. (Courtesy: Northwestern University) Temporary cardiac pacemakers provide essential pacing for patients with short-term heart ...

A pacemaker is a small electronic device that helps keep the heart beating regularly. It can represent a life-changing treatment for heart conditions such as arrhythmias. It is generally not too ...

A pacemaker is an electric medical device that’s generally about the size of a matchbox. A surgeon implants it under your skin to help manage irregular heartbeats called arrhythmias. Pacemakers can ...

The human heart is the ultimate timepiece. And yet it's not always the most reliable one. So an estimated one million people per year get back-up systems, pacemakers, implanted to restore the heart's ...

Defibrillators use electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rate, especially in cases of life threatening arrhythmias or sudden cardiac arrest, while pacemakers use low-energy electrical pulses to ...
