Research

Mayo Clinic researchers study pacemakers and implantable device procedures for people who might benefit from such devices. Read more about studies and clinical trials at Mayo Clinic in the Heart Rhythm Disease Program in the Cardiovascular Research Center.

Topics of research have included:

  • The safety of different types of pacemakers.
  • How well different types of pacemakers work.
  • Pain control procedures during and after pacemaker surgery.
  • The safety of different blood thinners used during pacemaker implantation or replacement.
  • The potential link between stroke and cardiac device wires, called leads.

Publications
