If your heart has trouble catching the beat, St. Jude Medical's got rhythm to spare. The company's main products are pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), both of which use electrical impulses to shock irregularly beating hearts back into rhythm. St. Jude also makes mechanical and tissue heart valves; items used in interventional cardiology procedures, such as catheters and guidewires; and ablation systems used to treat atrial fibrillation. Its neuromodulation business makes implantable devices (similar to pacemakers) that treat chronic pain using electrical stimulation. The company markets its products worldwide through its own sales force and distributors.
