Longer-Lasting Pacemaker Batteries Could Help Avoid Replacement Surgery

Researchers have come up with a way to increase the useful lifetime of nonrechargeable, or “primary,” batteries which are used for essential applications. Replacing the battery in a pacemaker or other medical implant requires a surgical procedure, so any increase in the longevity of their batteries could have a significant impact on the patient’s quality of life.

Early Intervention with Catheter Cryoablation Can Halt Disease Progression in Atrial Fibrillation Patients

A new study shows that cryoballoon catheter ablation (cryoablation), a minimally invasive procedure that involves guiding a small tube into the heart to kill problematic tissue with cold temperatures, can halt disease progression in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). More...

Resorbable Pacing Leads Can Significantly Reduce Risk After Cardiac Surgery

Researchers are developing resorbable pacing leads that can significantly reduce risk factors after cardiac surgery. In the future, bioresorbable leads that can be left in the body and then disappear by resorption after a defined period are expected to replace conventional leads. More...
