Outcome of single-chamber, ventricular pacemakers with transvenous leads implanted in children

What are the long-term outcomes and failure rates of single-chamber ventricular pacemakers with transvenous leads in children?

Population

Children

Intervention

Single-chamber, ventricular pacemakers with transvenous leads (VVI/R pacing)

Outcome

Outcomes and failure ratessafety

While VVI/R pacing in children has good results, there is a notable 19% long-term failure rate driven by lead complications.

In this particular group of patients, VVI/R pacing has good results, but after long-term FU shows 19% of failures, mainly lead-related.
