Summary

A cardiac pacemaker is an artificial apparatus that stimulates the myocardium electrically to depolarize, to begin a contraction when the heart's natural pacemaker does not work properly. Pacemakers are essential when dysrhythmias or conduction defects compromise the electrical system and the heart's hemodynamic response.

The current status aimed to assess the feasibility of motivational interviewing on emotional intelligence, dispositional optimism, and adherence to care practices among patients with permanent pacemaker.
