Pacing signals are either periodic impulses over a brief range (pacemaker) or sudden jolts to shock the heart into a steady pattern (defibrillator) artificial pacemakers may be needed to maintain an adequate heart rate. Artificial pacemakers use electrodes contacting the heart muscle to deliver electrical impulses that regulate the beating of the heart.
