A new cell phone-sized implant can keep blood pressure in check from within the chest, just like a pacemaker controls heartbeats. When the device detects a rise in pressure, it sends electrical signals to the brain via the carotid arteries in the neck. The brain then signals the body's own natural system to reduce blood pressure.
