This is a long-term monitoring study for people who have pacemakers implanted. Researchers will use the sensors already built into your pacemaker to track your heart rhythm, breathing patterns during sleep, and daily activity levels over 5 years. The goal is to understand how these factors are connected to serious heart and lung conditions, and to develop better ways to predict which patients are at highest risk.
Many people with pacemakers also have sleep apnea (interrupted breathing during sleep) or irregular heart rhythms, and these conditions often lead to serious complications like heart attack, stroke, or heart failure. This study exists to use the monitoring technology already in your pacemaker to catch problems early and develop smarter tools to predict who will develop these complications.

You will be followed for 5 years while your pacemaker continuously monitors your heart rhythm, sleep patterns, and activity levels using built-in sensors. The study team will review your pacemaker data regularly and will have you complete baseline heart imaging (CT scan) and medical exams. You will be observed to see how your health changes over time, with researchers tracking whether you develop conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, or lung disease.
