When pacemakers are removed, are they recycled or reused in another patient?

Question:

Answers:
When pacemakers are removed they are disposed of, they have a life of 5- ten years on battery power and are not a lifetime thing,.

Other Answers:
thrown away, it's hard to clean them and keep all the parts still working. Also they only last for 8-10 years, after thatm they just wear out

I believe that the correct answer is that the pacemaker is recycled or discarded.
