Why the study?
CIED infection is a serious complication and remains the commonest indication for TLE, posing challenges in pacing-dependent patients with bilateral venous access infection.
Leadless pacemakers may offer a safe pacing alternative for pacing-dependent patients with bilateral venous access infections due to CIED infection.
Leadless pacemakers may offer pacing options in select CIED infections with venous access issues; leaves open need for prospective validation.
CIED infection is a serious complication and remains the commonest indication for TLE.The patient exist two problems: bilateral venous access infection and pacing dependence. LP provide safe and effective pacing options for patients with device-related infections.
