Powered sheaths for lead extraction

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2021
AbstractTransvenous lead extraction (TLE) has seen a rapid expansion in the past 20 years. The procedure has changed from early techniques involving simple manual traction that frequently proved themselves ineffective for chronically implanted leads, and carried significant periprocedural risks including death, to the availability of a wide range of ...

Laser Extraction of Entrapped Leads

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2001
Parsonnet, V., et al.: Laser Extraction of Entrapped Leads. Removing entrapped pacing and defibrillator leads has been greatly simplified by making use of the excimer laser extractor. Sixty‐two leads were successfully removed, although where appropriate, portions of the lead remained in place in 10 cases. There were two serious complications, one tear

Femoral Approach to Lead Extraction

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2014
Femoral ExtractionLaser and radiofrequency energy–assisted lead extraction has greatly facilitated this complex procedure. Although success rates are high, in some instances alternate methods of extraction are required. In this review, we discuss techniques for femoral extraction of implanted leads and retained fragments.

Surgical and Hybrid Lead Extraction

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2018
Surgical and hybrid lead extraction has developed considerably over the past several decades. Although transvenous lead extraction is the standard approach to remove infected or malfunctioning cardiac implantable electronic device leads, surgical approaches may be necessary in complex cases not amenable to transvenous lead extraction or in cases that ...

Indications for Lead Extraction

Cardiology Clinics
Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are being implanted at increasing rates. Patients with CIEDs require more lead management in contemporary clinical practice, given the increased survival of heart failure patients. There are multiple indications for extraction with the strongest class I indications being in patients with CIED infections ...

Anesthesia Considerations for Lead Extraction

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2018
The role of the anesthesiologist in lead extraction procedures is multifaceted and highlights the collaborative, multidisciplinary teamwork needed to ensure patient safety and procedural success in these complex cases. Thorough preoperative evaluation and identification of high-risk characteristics enable the anesthesiologist to tailor a comprehensive ...

Nonthoracotomy Implantable Defibrillator Lead Extraction:

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2003
Extraction of pacemaker leads has been demonstrated to be successful and safe in experienced hands using current tools. Whether application of such techniques and tools yield similar results among patients undergoing extraction of nonthoracotomy implantable defibrillator leads is unknown.

Pacemaker and defibrillator lead extraction

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2004
Continued growth in the elderly population and expanding indications have resulted in a progressive increase in the number of implants of pacemakers and defibrillators. Concomitant with these expanding numbers, more leads require removal, due especially to mechanical dysfunction, the need to upgrade to more complex devices, or local or systemic ...
