Pacemaker Interrogation
Even though pacemakers and ICDs are very reliable, it is important for them to be checked to ensure that the device is working properly. Routine check-ups also provide your cardiologist with valuable information about how active the patient has been, whether they have developed arrhythmias, and how frequently the device is actually being used for pacing or other rhythm management. Some of the patients' devices can be checked remotely from their home.
