One important feature is the ability of the artificial pacemaker to speed up the heart rate in response to activity.

It is also used for long life batteries as required, for example, by artificial pacemakers.

In October 1981, Schmidt was fitted with a artificial pacemaker.

An artificial pacemaker stabilizes the system by taking over the job of sending out electrical impulses, getting the heart back into a regular rhythm.
