Events & Updates | First Dual Chamber Pacemaker Implantation Successfully Performed at BMH Payyanur

Baby Memorial Hospital (BMH) Payyanur has achieved a significant milestone in the field of cardiology by successfully performing its first Dual Chamber Pacemaker Implantation, further strengthening access to advanced cardiac care in the region.

A pacemaker is a specialised cardiac device used to regulate the heart's rhythm when the heartbeat becomes abnormally slow. By restoring and maintaining a normal heart rate, pacemaker implantation helps improve quality of life and reduces the risk of complications associated with irregular heart rhythms.

The procedure was successfully performed under the expert leadership of Dr Vivek S Narayan Pillai,  Senior Cardiologist, and Dr. Tajfeer U.M., showcasing the growing capabilities of BMH Payyanur in delivering advanced heart care services and complex cardiac procedures.

This achievement marks an important step forward for patients in Payyanur and surrounding regions who previously had to travel to larger cities for specialised cardiology treatments and pacemaker implantation procedures. With state-of-the-art infrastructure, advanced medical technology, and an experienced cardiac team, BMH Payyanur is now bringing world-class heart care closer to home.

The successful completion of this procedure reflects the hospital's commitment to providing comprehensive cardiology services, including the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders, coronary artery disease, heart failure, and other cardiovascular conditions.
