Abstract:Pacemakers are excellent for treating bradycardia and arrhythmias based on slow heart rate. Since the invention of the first
pulse generator, after decades of development, especially nearly two decades, cardiac pacemakers have greatly improved in size, life
and performance. Firstly, the development of pacemaker technology from many aspects was review according to the time line in this
paper, including energy, function, technology and reliability. Secondly, the technical level of current cardiac pacemakers in power
supply, physiological pacing and manufacturing technology is emphatically introduced. Finally, the existing problems of pacemakers
were analyzed, and the future development trend of cardiac pacing technology was summarized.
