==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
[[File:PacemakerDiagram.png|right|300px|thumb|This [[diagram]] shows how a [[pacemaker]] is connected to the [[heart]].]]
A [[pacemaker]] is a device used to keep a persons [[heart]] beating correctly.

===About Pacemakers===
: [[Pacemaker]]s can be used for people who have had damage to their [[heart]] that has killed the [[Nerve]] [[tissue]] that would normally send the signal around the [[heart]] for it to beat.
: [[Pacemaker]]s take the signal from the [[heart]]'s own natural [[pacemaker]] and can amplify the signal to make it stronger and bypass any [[nerve]] damage to send the signal where it needs to go.
