A heart and blood vessel specialist, Dr.Dicky Armein Hanafy, explained that a heart rate that is too slow or called brachycardia, makes the body not get enough blood so that it can cause a person to become tired, easily faint, or lightheaded, have short breaths, and experience vital organ damage which can eventually lead to death.
“In extreme cases, these disorders can also cause stroke , namely when the blood supply to the brain is lacking in a certain period, causing the death of brain cells, “said Dr. Dicky in a press conference held by the Heartology Cardiovascular Center, some time ago.
He said, how to deal with the disorder is done through drugs. If medication does not solve the problem, a permanent pacemaker (pacemaker) be the way out. The device serves to stimulate the heart to beat normally.
Doctor Dicky explained that currently wireless pacemakers are available (leadless pacemaker), the size of a vitamin only.
The Leadless pacemaker insertion process does not require surgery, simply inserting a catheter through a small incision in the groin and using an X-ray guide, the catheter will be directed to the heart. The patient will be given local anesthesia around the area.
