Dual-Chamber Leadless Pacemaker Implantation

Leadless pacemaker technology represents an advancement in cardiac pacing. Unlike conventional pacemakers, leadless systems are designed to eliminate the need for traditional pacing leads and a conventional chest incision for a pulse generator.

Dual-chamber leadless pacing is designed to provide coordinated pacing of the upper and lower chambers of the heart. This technology can provide pacing support while avoiding some of the components associated with conventional transvenous pacemaker systems.

The device is delivered through a catheter-based procedure, typically through the venous system, and positioned inside the heart under imaging guidance. Patient selection is an important part of the procedure, and suitability depends on the individual's rhythm disorder, anatomy, clinical requirements and the available device technology.
