Summary

This study looked at 60 people with different types of pacemakers to see how the device affects their arm function, balance, physical activity, fear of movement, and quality of life. Researchers measured things like hand strength, walking speed, and daily living tasks. The goal was to understand why some patients don't feel as well as expected after getting a pacemaker.
