single chamber/double chamber pacemaker

Single chamber pacemakers use one lead in the upper chambers (atria) or lower chambers (ventricles) of the heart.
Dual chamber pacemakers use one lead in the atria and one lead in the ventricles of your heart.

single-chamber / dual-chamber pacemaker

Single-chamber pacemaker. In this type, only one pacing lead is placed into a chamber of the heart, either the atrium or the ventricle.
Dual-chamber pacemaker. Here, wires are placed in two chambers of the heart. One lead paces the atrium and one paces the ventricle. This type more closely resembles the natural pacing of the heart by assisting the heart in coordinating the function between the atria and ventricles.
