From Metronome to Physiologic Pacing (5/) – World’s 1st DDD PM Dual chamber pacing began as early as 1963. However, the Holy Grail of physiologic pacing (DDD) would take 2 more decades to materialize. By early 1980s, the world had what it needed for DDD…lnkd.in/gKUgH5i

From Metronome to Physiologic Pacing (6/) – World’s 1st CRT After the introduction of DDD PMs in 1982, the next major advance in pacing mode came in 2001 with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). As early as 1987, Mower patented the concept of “bive…lnkd.in/ghh627V
