Patients who require a new permanent pacemaker after TAVI do just as well with leadless devices out to 2 years as they do with transvenous pacemakers, according to an analysis of real-world data from ...

The implantable defibrillator with subcutaneous leads, designed in part to minimize the risk for potentially serious lead-related complications, has reached a milestone by turning in a "noninferior" ...

The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) was designed to avoid complications related to the transvenous ICD lead by using an entirely extrathoracic placement. Evidence comparing ...

ORLANDO, Florida — Transvenous extraction of unused pacemaker or defibrillator leads poses a higher risk for death as an acute complication when it's performed by using a laser-based extraction sheath ...

NEW ORLEANS -- A leadless dual-chamber pacemaker with bidirectional wireless communication turned in very promising short-term results in patients with standard indications for dual-chamber pacing, ...

Patients who received a leadless pacemaker had similar rates of acute complications and survival at 30 days as those who received a transvenous VVI pacemaker, according to data presented at the ...

ORLANDO, FL—The second major trial this year shows good safety and efficacy for a leadless intracardiac transcatheter pacing system in the short term, but some in the electrophysiology community worry ...

When transvenous pacing is unsuitable, leadless cardiac pacemaker implantation can be used during the evidence generation period for dual-chamber pacing or right atrial pacing alone for ...
