Return to Pacemakers Overview

Pacemakers

When the heart's natural pacemaker has a malfunction, the heartbeat may become too slow. A permanent pacemaker — a small device that is implanted under the skin — is used to start or regulate a slow heartbeat. At NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, our experts in the treatment of arrhythmias use the latest advancements in pacemaker technology, including single chamber pacemakers, dual chamber pacemakers, and combined implantable cardioverter defibrillators/pacemakers, to treat cardiac arrhythmias.

Transtelephonic Pacemaker Check-ups

At NewYork-Presbyterian, our staff can monitor implanted pacemakers periodically by telephone from your home to evaluate routine functional status and to examine battery status.
