Optical pacing (OP) uses pulsed infrared light to initiate heartbeats in electrically excitable cardiac tissues without employing exogenous agents. OP is an alternative approach to electrical pacing that may overcome some its disadvantages for some applications. In this review, we discuss the initial demonstrations, mechanisms, safety, advantages and applications of OP.
光学起搏(Optical pacing,OP)使用脉冲红外光在无需使用外源性试剂的情况下引发电兴奋心脏组织的心跳。OP 是一种替代电起搏的方法,对于某些应用可能克服其某些缺点。在本综述中,我们讨论了 OP 的最初演示、机制、安全性、优点和应用。
