More than 4,000 abstracts were presented during the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2023 and Resuscitation Science Symposium 2023, held earlier this month in Philadelphia.
By converting mechanical energy into electrical energy, an experimental wireless, or leadless, pacemaker housing is able to partially recharge its battery, according to a proof-of-principle study to be presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2023.
It's an incredibly interesting proof-of-concept, said an expert, but this "energy harvesting" prototype isn't going to replace current battery powered leadless pacemakers just yet.
The Heart Rhythm Society Annual Meeting, HRS2023, will gather heart rhythm professionals from around the world when it convenes May 19-21 in New Orleans, LA.
Wireless or leadless pacemakers, commonly implanted in adults, may be a safe and effective short-term option for children with slow heartbeats, according to new research published today in Circulation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association.
