Northwestern researchers have developed the world’s smallest pacemaker, which with its dissolvable nature allows it to be inserted non-invasively into patients’ bodies. Fit into the tip of a syringe, ...

The tiny pacemaker sits next to a single grain of rice on a fingertip. The device is so small that it can be non-invasively injected into the body via a syringe. Northwestern University engineers have ...

A prototype for a leadless pacemaker that converts the heart's oscillations into voltage generated 10.9% of the energy needed to stimulate one heartbeat in a laboratory benchtop experiment. If the ...

Innovative symbiotic transcatheter pacemaker harvests heart motion energy for lifelong pacing. Learn how this could transform ...
