A pacemaker is a small device that's placed (implanted) in the chest to help control the heartbeat. It's used to prevent the heart from beating too slowly. Implanting a pacemaker in the chest requires a surgical procedure. A pacemaker is also called a cardiac pacing device.
Pacemakers are not resuscitative devices, and they will not keep a dying patient alive. Most dying patients become acidotic before cardiac arrest, which effectively renders a pacemaker nonfunctional, as under such conditions, the myocardium does not respond to the pacemaker's discharges.
The heart will stop when death occurs. The pacemaker does not prolong life, nor does it cause the heart to continue to beat indefinitely. Once the person stops breathing, there is no longer oxygen being sent through the body.
People with congestive heart failure are often given pacemakers to help their hearts pump more efficiently. But doctors have been puzzled by about 40 percent of people given those devices who don't get any better. They often wind up in the hospital, or they die.
