lead (C). The Micra is a fully enclosed, airtight capsule with a volume of 0.8 cubic centimeters, a length of 25.9 millimeters, a diameter of 6.7 millimeters, and a weight of 2.0 grams (D). It is assumed to have a longevity of 9.6 years based on a 1.5 Volt output, five-hundred-ohm resistance, sixty beats per minute, and a 0.24 millisecond pulse width (C). The function of the Micra remains the same as other single-chamber pacemakers; sensing the cardiac depolarization of myocardial cells,…
