Pacemaker

Why choose us for your pacemaker?

What is a pacemaker?

A pacemaker insertion is the implantation of a small electronic device that is usually placed in the chest (just below the collarbone) to help regulate slow electrical problems with the heart. A pacemaker may be recommended toensure that the heartbeat does not slow to a dangerously low rate.

Who is a candidate for a pacemaker?

A pacemaker may be inserted in order to stimulate a faster heart rate when the heart is beating too slowly, and causing problems that cannot otherwise be corrected.

Problems with the heart rhythm may cause difficulties because the heart is unable to pump an adequate amount of blood to the body. If the heart rate is too slow, the blood is pumped too slowly. If the heart rate is too fast or too irregular, the heart chambers are unable to fill up with enough blood to pump out with each beat. When the body does not receive enough blood, symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, fainting, and/or chest pain may occur.

Some examples of heart rate and rhythm problems for which a pacemaker might be inserted include:

Bradycardia. This occurs when the sinus node causes the heart to beat too slowly.
Tachy-brady syndrome. This is characterized by alternating fast and slow heartbeats.
Heart block. This occurs when the electrical signal is delayed or blocked after leaving the SA node; there are several types of heart blocks.

There may be other reasons for your doctor to recommend a pacemaker insertion.

¿How much does a pacemaker cost?

The cost of a pacemaker depends on the number of wires that are installed in your heart.

A single lead pacemaker costs between 80,000 to 100,000 pesos

A two-lead pacemaker costs between 90,000 to 110,000 pesos
