Norway's King Harald Gets Pacemaker to Boost Heart Rate

Norway's King Harald underwent a scheduled pacemaker implant on Tuesday to address a low heart rate, following his hospitalization in Malaysia for an infection last month. Initially, a temporary pacemaker was fitted on March 2 in Malaysia. The 87-year-old monarch was later transferred to Norway for continued treatment, where doctors decided on a permanent device implantation. King Harald, serving as Norway's ceremonial head of state since 1991, is Europe's oldest living monarch. His recent health challenges include recurring infections, leading to hospitalizations and heart surgery. Following the pacemaker procedure, he will remain hospitalized for a few days, according to the royal court. Crown Prince Haakon has been assuming the monarch's duties during his father's absence.

The medical interventions highlight the health concerns faced by ageing monarchs and the need for ongoing care to ensure their well-being and ability to fulfil ceremonial responsibilities. King Harald's health issues also raise questions about the future of Norway's monarchy and the potential role of transition to Crown Prince Haakon. The medical procedures underscore the delicate balance between preserving traditional institutions and adapting to changing circumstances in the context of royal families.
