Similar occlusion risk across ages supports uniform surveillance in pediatric CIED patients; leaves open identification of other predictors.
Do patient age, body size, and lead characteristics predict venous occlusion in children and young adults with transvenous lead systems?
Patient age, body size, and lead characteristics at implant do not predict venous occlusion in children and young adults with transvenous lead systems.
Bar‐Cohen et al. (2006) studied this question.
