When a person’s heart beats too slowly or irregularly because of electrical issues, a pacemaker may be used. Sitaramesh Emani, MD, a cardiologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, explains that a pacemaker is essentially a backup electrical system that ensures the heart stays in proper rhythm.

While there are a variety of pacemaker options available, Dr.Emani says they are becoming increasingly “smarter,” so that they are only used when needed and may actually help strengthen the heart.
