Pacemaker insertion
Regulating heart rhythm. Pacemaker insertion is a medical procedure that involves placing a small device, known as a pacemaker, under the skin in the upper part of the chest. This device is essential for individuals whose hearts beat too slowly or irregularly, as it helps to regulate the heart’s rhythm. The pacemaker sends electrical signals to the heart, ensuring it maintains a regular and healthy pace. The procedure typically lasts about 1 to 2 hours and is performed under local anaesthetic, allowing you to remain awake while numbing the area to prevent pain. A small incision is made, and thin wires are carefully guided through a blood vessel to reach the heart. These wires connect to the pacemaker, which is then implanted just beneath the skin. After the procedure, you will spend a short time in the hospital to ensure that the pacemaker is functioning correctly. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days, although it's advisable to avoid strenuous activities or lifting heavy objects for a few weeks. The pacemaker plays a crucial role in stabilising your heart rate, helping to alleviate symptoms such as dizziness or fatigue.
