❤️🔬 Researchers have developed an ultra-small pacemaker, no larger than a grain of rice, that temporarily supports the heart and then safely dissolves inside the body. Unlike traditional pacemakers, it doesn’t require surgery for removal. Designed for patients recovering from heart attacks or surgery, the device helps regulate heart rhythm until the heart stabilizes, then gradually breaks down, leaving no permanent hardware behind. This innovation is a major step in minimally invasive medicine, reducing infection risk, shortening recovery time, and cutting healthcare costs—while still providing precise, life-saving support. It represents a future where medical devices work with the body and step aside once healing is complete.
