Cardiovascular problems are one of the most common diseases associated with mortality. Lack of physical activity, modern lifestyle, unhealthy eating habits, lack of nutrition, and various other socio-economic conditions – have increased cardiovascular problems. Even though multiple medical treatments are available to treat heart issues, a pacemaker remains one of the most important advances in providing care for heart patients.
Over the past few decades, various innovations and advancements in the field of cardiology have helped us to learn more and more about the human heart, its functioning, and the diseases that affect it.
The human heart is a vital organ that pumps blood throughout the body. It has four chambers, and each chamber has a valve that regulates blood flow. These valves ensure that blood flows in one direction, and if they become damaged or diseased, they can cause serious health problems.
