The advantages and disadvantages of cardiac pacemakers need to be analyzed separately.

1. Advantages

Cardiac pacemakers can automatically defibrillate and correct various types of arrhythmias. Secondly, after implantation of cardiac pacemakers, they can improve the patient's cardiac function, thus reducing palpitations, fatigue, dizziness, syncope and other symptoms.

2. Disadvantages

After installation of cardiac pacemakers, patients need to adapt to living with cardiac pacemakers. Some patients may feel uncomfortable, such as muscle twitching, headache, dizziness, etc. In addition, surgery is required when installing cardiac pacemakers, and there are certain risks and complications, including infection, bleeding, nerve damage, etc.
