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 ...

Mechanical and electrical energy are linked and can be exchanged back and forth. Just like ultrasound converts electrical voltage into pressure or sound, we can engineer similar materials onto ...

A pacemaker is a battery-operated device placed in body to produce electrical pulses that cause the heart to beat at a normal rate. Recent research studies have described the use of energy harvesting ...

Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...
