Temporary and Permanent Pacemaker in Kota

Pacemaker Implantation is a life-saving cardiac procedure designed to regulate slow, erratic, or dangerously paused heart rhythms (bradycardia, sick sinus syndrome, and complete heart block). At Shri Vinayak Hospital Kota, Senior Interventional Cardiologist Dr. Bhupendra Bathla provides advanced Temporary Pacemaker (TPI) and Permanent Pacemaker (PPI) implantation in our high-tech digital Cath Lab.

Types of Pacemaker Implantation Provided:

• Temporary Pacemaker (TPI): An emergency procedure utilized during acute heart attacks, drug overdose, or severe reversible heart blocks to stabilize heart rate until permanent treatment.
• Single Chamber Pacemaker: Connects one lead to either the right atrium or right ventricle to maintain steady pacing.
• Dual Chamber Pacemaker: Utilizes two pacing leads in both atrium and ventricle, mimicking natural physiological heart rhythm and maximizing cardiac output.
• Bi-Ventricular Pacemaker (CRT-P / CRT-D): Specialized cardiac resynchronization therapy for patients with severe heart failure. Learn more about our ICD and CRTD Implantation services.

Indications for a Pacemaker:

Pacemakers are recommended for patients suffering from Complete Heart Block (AV Block), symptomatic bradycardia (pulse rate under 45-50 bpm), recurrent fainting spells (syncope), carotid sinus hypersensitivity, or chronic heart failure. Initial evaluation includes comprehensive ECG and Echocardiography.

Procedure & Recovery at Shri Vinayak Hospital Kota

The permanent pacemaker generator is implanted beneath the skin just below the collarbone under local anesthesia, taking approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Patients typically recover rapidly with a 24-to-48-hour hospital stay under observation in our dedicated Cardiac ICU. With battery life exceeding 10–15 years, patients enjoy an active, energetic lifestyle with routine post-implantation device clinic follow-ups.
