Leadless Pacemaker

The world's smallest pacemaker: No wires, no incision, just results.

Reimagining Pacing Technology

Traditional pacemakers require a surgical "pocket" under the skin and wires (leads) that travel to the heart. A leadless pacemaker is a revolutionary leap forward—a self-contained generator and electrode system the size of a large vitamin capsule that is implanted directly inside the heart.
