Former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob has successfully undergone a pacemaker implantation procedure after being admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) due to an abnormal heart rhythm, according to a report from nst.com.my. The procedure, which was leadless, was described as successful, and he is now advised to rest.
The procedure was confirmed by the hospital, which stated that the treatment was carried out without complications. Ismail Sabri, who previously served as Malaysia’s leader, is currently recovering following the operation. His health has been a topic of public interest in recent months, with several reports highlighting his medical condition.
A local news outlet, utusan.com.my, also reported that Ismail Sabri had safely completed the heart procedure, emphasizing the positive outcome. The report included an image of the former leader, though it was not clear if it was taken during or after the operation.
Another source, kosmo.com.my, had previously reported that Ismail Sabri was set to undergo the procedure later in the day, as confirmed by his legal representative. This aligns with the recent confirmation of the successful operation.
