A heartbeat of 60 beats is usually normal after a pacemaker is fitted.
In adults, the heartbeat is usually between 60 and 100 beats/min; usually, under the influence of running, drinking, heavy physical labor and emotional excitement, as well as high fever, anemia, hyperthyroidism, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and other factors, the heartbeat may be accelerated, which can lead to a heartbeat of >100 beats/min.
If the heart rate is too slow, when it falls below 40 beats/min, the ventricular diastolic period is too long, which does not allow for further increase in filling volume and stroke volume, resulting in a decrease in cardiac output. In bradycardia-induced torsade de pointes and sustained ventricular tachycardia, which are not effectively treated with medication, a permanent pacemaker implantation is required.
Usually, when a pacemaker is implanted, the pacing heart rate of 60 beats/minute is set because the parameter is set to 60 beats/minute, and the result is that the heart rate improves slowly and reaches the normal level, which is usually normal; if the heart rate is abnormal after implantation of the pacemaker, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to clarify the cause of the disease and then treat it under the guidance of the doctor.
