Patients who require a new permanent pacemaker after TAVI do just as well with leadless devices out to 2 years as they do with transvenous pacemakers, according to an analysis of real-world data from ...

Patients receiving leadless pacemakers experience overall fewer short-term and mid-term complications than those receiving traditional transvenous pacemakers, a new study found. Patients receiving ...

Patients who received a leadless pacemaker had similar rates of acute complications and survival at 30 days as those who received a transvenous VVI pacemaker, according to data presented at the ...

ORLANDO, FL — Transvenous pacemaker leads pose a number of potential challenges and risks, including serious infection, so several alternative strategies—such as subcutaneous leads in the case of ...

A leadless right-ventricular pacemaker continued to show an edge over conventional transvenous pacemakers by triggering a substantially reduced rate of complications during the 6 months following ...
