Pacemakers are implanted devices that stabilize abnormal heart rhythms, preventing life-threatening issues. They use electrical impulses to correct irregular heartbeats and prevent complications. Permanent pacemakers consist of a pulse generator, leads, and an electrode, regulated by a computer and battery to signal the heart when necessary.
Some of the permanent pacemaker indications include bradycardia, sinus node dysfunction, atrioventricular block, cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, sinus sick syndrome, and more.
Permanent pacemaker implantations (PPI) benefit cardiac patients and older adults, lasting 7 to 10 years. They offer improved heart function, breathing, and reduced fatigue by eliminating bradycardia.
An interventional cardiologist typically performs PPI surgery, which is a minimally invasive procedure performed as an outpatient or as an inpatient procedure based on the patient’s condition.
Permanent Pacemaker Types
Types of permanent pacemakers include:
- Uni or single chamber pacemaker: Sends electrical signals to the lower right heart chamber.
- Dual chamber pacemaker: Sends signals to upper and lower right heart chambers.
- Biventricular pacemaker: For heart failure patients with slow heartbeat. Stimulates both lower heart chambers, strengthening heart muscle.

Permanent Pacemaker Implant(PPI): Pre-Op & Post-Op Care
Preparation: A cardiologist may advise tests like chest X-rays, EKGs, or blood tests to evaluate heart health and fitness for surgery. They may advise stopping or adjusting certain medications, especially blood thinners. Patients are advised to fast overnight before surgery after completing the necessary assessments prior to the surgery.
During the procedure: The patient undergoes the Cardiac Pacemaker surgery using an IV anesthesia, and a small incision to insert a flexible tube under the collarbone. This tube ascends through blood veins to the heart, where it is monitored through Fluoroscopy. A pacemaker is then fitted beneath the skin, and various heart scans are conducted to ensure normal functioning of vital organs.
After the procedure: After Heart Pacemaker Surgery, the patient undergoes critical observation to ensure normal functioning of all organs and avoid any side effects. After regulating heart rate and blood-related bodily functions, the patient is discharged from the recovery ward and sent home.
Post-procedure care- The post-procedure care for Permanent Pacemaker Implant (PPI)Surgery are as follows:
- Specific instructions are to be followed to take care of the incision and dressing as instructed Activity restrictions are advised to prevent dislodgement of the pacemaker or leads.
- Pain management is advised, with medication prescribed if needed.
- Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor pacemaker function and recovery progress.
- Electronic device restrictions are advised to prevent interference.
- Gradual return to normal activities, including driving, work, and exercise, is advised.
- Healthy habits like a balanced diet and regular exercise should be followed, as approved by the surgeon.
