What are pacemakers and ICDs?
Pacemakers are battery-powered devices that regulate heartbeat with small electrical impulses. ICDs can also detect and correct dangerous rhythm disturbances through therapeutic shocks when needed.
Who may need one?
These devices are considered for rhythm disorders and conduction abnormalities.
- Bradycardia (slow heartbeat)
- Heart block
- Atrial fibrillation
- Medication-related slow heart rate
Aftercare and follow-up
The Heart Institute of Venice provides dedicated pacemaker/ICD clinic follow-up with programming checks and routine evaluations to ensure safe, optimal long-term performance after implantation.
