Leadless Pacemakers: Past, Present, and Future—A Review of Antennas and Wireless Power and Data Telemetry

IEEE Journal of Microwaves
The leadless cardiac pacemaker is a revolutionary device for bradycardia patients. It is a single-component, capsule-type implantable medical device that corrects the heart's electrical function when the heart rate falls below the standard value ...

Transcatheter Leadless Pacemaker for the Treatment of Vasovagal Syncope

, 2023
Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is largely a benign condition focused on patient education, lifestyle modification, and avoidance of triggers. However, a subset of patients may benefit from permanent pacemaker placement.

End-of-life Management of Leadless Cardiac Pacemaker Therapy

, 2017
The clinically available leadless pacemakers for patients with a single-chamber pacing indication have shown to be safe and effective. However, the optimal end-of-life strategy of this novel technique is undefined.

Leadless pacemaker tine fracture and dislocation: two case reports

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
The rate of leadless pacemaker implantation is increasing worldwide. To date, there have been few reports of leadless pacemaker dislocation and extraction. This article describes two cases of leadless pacemaker tine fracture and dislocation. One case was

Impact of Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Position on Subclinical Right Ventricular Perforation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Fundamental characterization of conductive intracardiac communication for leadless multisite pacemaker systems

, 2018
Objective: A new generation of leadless cardiac pacemakers effectively overcomes the main limitations of conventional devices, but only offer single-chamber pacing, although dual-chamber or multisite pacing is highly desirable for most patients.

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.

Jugular Versus Femoral Venous Access for Leadless Pacemaker Implantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leadless pacemakers (LPMs) have been shown to reduce complications compared with conventional transvenous pacing. Transfemoral venous access (FA) is the standard implantation approach; however, the transjugular approach (JA) has recently emerged as an alternative strategy, but comparative evidence remains limited.

Leadless pacemaker implantation after transcatheter lead extraction in complex anatomy patient

Clinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical Message After transvenous lead extraction, leadless pacemaker might be a valid alternative to the traditional two‐step strategy including an active fixation leads temporary PM and subsequent contralateral permanent implantation in patients ...
