Implication

Should guide perioperative protocols for patients with pacemakers and ICDs to minimize risks; extends consensus recommendations on electromagnetic interference management.

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with a preexisting, permanently implanted cardiac rhythm management device (CRMD) for treatment of bradyarrhythmia, tachyarrhythmia, or heart failure undergoing perioperative management.

Intervention

Perioperative management strategies including focused preoperative evaluation, determining electromagnetic interference (EMI) risk, and device reprogramming.

This practice advisory provides consensus-based recommendations for the safe perioperative management of patients with pacemakers and ICDs to reduce adverse outcomes.

Limitations

Lack of sufficient numbers of adequately controlled studies to permit aggregate analyses of data with rigorous statistical techniques such as meta-analysis
