Pacemaker in heart disease. Coloured chest X-ray showing a pacemaker (right) fitted to a 73-year-old male patient with an enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) atrial fibrillation, ischaemic heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A pacemaker supplies electrical impulses to the heart to maintain the heartbeat at a regular rate. It may be external (worn on a belt) or internal (implanted in the chest, as here)

This print showcases a coloured chest X-ray of a pacemaker fitted to a 73-year-old male patient with multiple health conditions. The image reveals an enlarged heart, known as cardiomegaly, along with atrial fibrillation, ischaemic heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The pacemaker, clearly visible on the right side of the X-ray, plays a crucial role in managing the patient's heart condition. It supplies electrical impulses to ensure that the heartbeat remains steady and regular. This life-saving device can be either external or internal; however, in this case, it has been implanted within the patient's chest. The intricate details captured by this horizontal image provide valuable insight into medical science and its advancements in treating complex cardiac issues. The expertise of Dr P. Marazzi is evident through this remarkable photograph from Science Photo Libr. As we admire this artwork from Fine Art Storehouse, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also acknowledge the immense impact it represents for patients battling heart diseases worldwide. Through innovative technologies like pacemakers, medical professionals continue to enhance and extend lives while offering hope for those affected by such conditions.
