简介
Background
Limited data on the real-world safety and efficacy of leadless pacemakers (LPMs) post–transvenous lead extraction (TLE) are available.
Objective
The purpose of this study was to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of LPMs following TLE in comparison with LPMs de novo implantation.
Methods
Consecutive patients who underwent LPM implantation in 12 European centers joining the International LEAdless PacemakEr Registry were enrolled. The primary end point was the comparison of LPM-related complication rate at implantation and during follow-up (FU) between groups. Differences in electrical performance were deemed secondary outcomes.
Results
Of the 1179 patients enrolled, 15.6% underwent a previous TLE. During a median FU of 33 (interquartile range 24–47) months, LPM-related major complications and all-cause mortality did not differ between groups (TLE group: 1.6% and 5.4 …
