Pune India, Dec. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The market has been studied for the below mentioned-segmentation and regional analysis for North America, Europe, Asia, South America, and Middle East and ...

Here are five things to know. 1. For the study, research exposed 119 people with pacemakers to electric and magnetic fields with frequencies of 50 to 60 hertz — similar to levels used by power grids.

Pacing threshold varies during the 24 hours in children (Fig. 2). This variability is low, not exceeding 0.2 V (0.03 ± 0.01 V), so it is unlikely to affect pacemaker programming. There were no ...
