Device detected atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea. CV = coefficient of variation; RDI = Respiratory disturbance index. ABSTRACT Using pacemaker‐derived thoracic impedance monitoring, sleep apnea severity and its night‐to‐night variability can be continuously tracked in patients with implanted cardiac devices.

ABSTRACT Background Permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation is recommended in patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND). In patients with coexisting heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), clinicians may be hesitant to treat SND due to concerns about exacerbating heart failure.

A Spinning Nightmare of Twiddler's Syndrome?
ABSTRACT Twiddler's syndrome is a known complication of CIED implantation. Most published cases of Twiddler's syndrome are described as being secondary to patient manipulation of the pulse generator leading to horizontal rotation and “reeling” of the pacemaker leads around the generator. The authors of this paper present a case of an 81‐year‐old female

Early Mobilization After Pacemaker Implantation
ABSTRACT Background The increasing use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) is leading to a rise in procedure‐related complications. Objective This trial aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of early mobilization and the possibility of same‐day discharge following permanent pacemaker implantation.

Impact of Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Position on Subclinical Right Ventricular Perforation
ABSTRACT Introduction Leadless pacemakers are typically implanted in the mid‐septum of the right ventricle (RV) to mitigate the risk of perforation. However, reports on the precise location of these implants are limited. This study aimed to elucidate tine‐based leadless pacemaker position and presence of subclinical RV perforation through computed ...
