SSB Hospital Faridabad implants region's first leadless atrial pacemaker

SSB Hospital Faridabad performed the region's first implant of a newly launched leadless atrial pacemaker, offering a safer option for elderly patients. The procedure involved implanting a small, capsule-like device entirely inside the heart via a leg vein puncture, avoiding chest surgery and leads. This is a significant advancement for patients with complex medical conditions. This new technology expands local cardiac treatment options for medically fragile individuals, those on blood thinners, and patients unable to undergo traditional pacemaker surgery.
