Sports stars competing with pacemakers

Danish star Christian Eriksen fainted during a friendly match after the implanted pacemaker in his chest, which he successfully received in 2021, activated and restored his heart's normal rhythm. The device, considered an advanced safety system, aims to save lives in the event of serious cardiac disturbances, and allows many athletes to continue competing after thorough medical evaluations. Advances in heart disease treatment technology have significantly developed, enabling numerous athletes to return to the field after similar serious injuries.
