Bacteraemia after leadless pacemaker implantation [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2020
AbstractBackgroundTransvenous 3 permanent pacemaker‐related infection is a severe condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Leadless pacemakers may be more resistant to bacterial seeding during bloodstream infection because of its small surface area and encapsulation in the right ventricle.

Implantation of leadless pacemaker for the development of new left bundle branch block and symptomatic pause following transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Heart Views, 2019
Cardiac conduction disturbances such as left bundle branch block (LBBB) and atrioventricular blocks (AVB) occur frequently following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and may be associated with adverse clinical events.
