DOI: 10.1007/s10840-019-00680-2
Abstract: Background Cardiac pacing has been shown to improve quality of life and prognosis of patients with bradycardia for almost 60 years. The latest innovation in pacemaker therapy was miniaturization of generators to allow leadless pacing directly… read more here.

Abstract: Since permanent pacemakers were introduced nearly 60 years ago, the technology paradigm has consisted of a subcutaneous generator connected to separately placed epicardial or transvenous leads. Despite substantial improvements in lead and generator technology, leadand… read more here.

DOI: 10.5603/cj.a2023.0035
Abstract: Since the arrival of leadless pacemakers (LPs), they have become a cornerstone in remedial treatment of bradycardia and atrioventricular (AV) conduction disorders, as an alternative to transvenous pacemakers. Even though clinical trials and case reports… read more here.
