Modern pacing systems are composed of a pulse generator and a lead (Figure 1). The pulse generator has a roughly circular shape (4-5 cm diameter) and weighs approximately 25-30 g. [32] The pulse ...
Last summer, Northwestern University researchers introduced the first-ever transient pacemaker — a fully implantable, wireless device that harmlessly dissolves in the body after it’s no longer needed.
