A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures
ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

Using routine electronic data from 164 pediatric transplants, we created reproducible stewardship measures of perioperative prophylaxis practice across transplant populations and protocol pathways. Starting prophylaxis was reliable, but continuation beyond intended stop targets—especially in abdominal transplantation—identified the clearest target for ...
