The pacing that you are referring to, I think, is biventricular pacing. This is a new, and still somewhat experimental, method of pacing both sides of the heart to improve its pumping efficiency in patients with congestive heart failure. If he is interested in exploring such options, he could call our center and make an appointment in the heart failure clinic.
