A pacemaker is a small electronic device that is placed in your chest, just below the collarbone, to regulate your abnormal heart rate. Basically, a pacemaker sends electrical pulses to your heart to keep it beating regularly. It is often recommended to ensure that the heartbeat does not slow to a dangerously low rate. If you've been diagnosed with abnormally slow or fast heartbeat, heart pacemaker surgery can significantly improve your quality of life.
At Felix Hospital, the best hospital for pacemaker surgery in Greater Noida West, our team of dedicated cardiologists and cardiac surgeons provide comprehensive heart care tailored to meet the unique needs of our patients. They are committed to delivering the highest quality of care through advanced diagnostic techniques, innovative treatments, and compassionate support.
What is Pacemaker Surgery?
The pacemaker is a device that sends electrical pulses to your heart to keep it beating regularly. Problems with the heart rhythm, be it too slow or too fast, may cause difficulties because the heart is unable to pump an adequate amount of blood to the body. And, when the body does not receive enough blood, symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, fainting, and/or chest pain may occur.
The pacemaker has a small metal case, electronic circuitry with a tiny computer and the battery that regulates impulses signaled to the heart.
Different Types of Pacemakers
- Single Chamber Pacemaker: has wires or leads that transmit electrical pulses from the pulse generator to the right ventricle.
- Dual-Chamber Pacemaker: has the leads that transmit pulses from the generator to the right ventricle and right atrium.
- Biventricular Pacemaker: transmits pulses from generator to an atrium and 2 ventricles.

Why is Pacemaker Surgery Required?
Common heart rate and rhythm problems for which a heart pacemaker surgery might be recommended, includes:
- Heart blockage
- Tachy-brady syndrome, a condition when your heart fluctuates between beating too quickly and too slowly
- Bradycardia, a condition when the heart beats too slowly.
- Cardiac arrest
- Heart attack
- Congestive heart failure, a condition when the heart’s pumping power reduces.
Thus, when a person’s heartbeat is irregular or too slow, a pacemaker will send a signal to the heart to beat. However, there may be other reasons or conditions for your doctor to recommend a pacemaker surgery.
What to Expect During Pacemaker Implantation Surgery?
During the heart pacemaker surgery, you would be given sedative medication via an intravenous drip. This will allow you to sleep through the procedure. The surgeon will insert a sheath into a blood vessel, usually under the collarbone. The sheath is basically a plastic tube through which the pacer lead wire will be inserted into the blood vessel and advanced into the heart.
Once the lead wire is inside the heart, the surgeon will ensure that the placement is correct and that it works. Fluoroscopy, a special type of x-ray, will help the surgeon determine the placing of the pacemaker. The pacemaker generator will be slipped under your skin on the side of your body. Your electrocardiogram (ECG) will be observed to ensure that the pacer is working correctly.
