Does the number and diameter of implanted leads increase the risk of venous stenosis in patients undergoing transvenous lead placement?
212 consecutive patients undergoing transvenous lead placement
Transvenous lead placement (evaluating the number of implanted leads, sum of lead diameters, and multiple implant procedures)
Venous stenosissafety
The risk of venous stenosis after transvenous lead placement is significantly associated with the number of leads, total lead diameter, and multiple implant procedures.
A significant association exists between venous stenosis and the number of implanted leads and also the sum of the lead diameters. When combined with multiple implant procedures, the incidence of venous stenosis is increased.
