Transvenous Lead Extraction via the Inferior Approach Using a Gooseneck Snare versus Simple Manual Traction
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The number of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices needing lead extraction is increasing for various reasons, including infections, vascular obstruction, and lead failure. We report our experience with transvenous extraction of pacemaker and defibrillator leads via the inferior approach of using a gooseneck snare as a first-line therapy and compare extr...
متن کاملOutcomes of Transvenous Lead Extraction for Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device Infections in Patients With Prosthetic Heart Valves.
BACKGROUND Lead-related or valve-related endocarditis can complicate cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infection in patients with both CIED and prosthetic valves. The objective of this study was to determine the outcomes of transvenous lead extraction for CIED infection in patients with prosthetic valves. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively screened 794 transvenous lead e...
متن کاملForces Applied during Transvenous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Lead Removal
METHODS 17 physicians, experienced in transvenous lead removal, performed a lead extraction manoeuvre of an ICD lead on a torso phantom. They were advised to stop traction only when further traction would be considered as harmful to the patient or when--based on their experience--a change in the extraction strategy was indicated. Traction forces were recorded with a digital precision gauge. R...
متن کاملPercutaneous Extraction of Transvenous Permanent Pacemaker/Defibrillator Leads
BACKGROUND Widespread use of cardiovascular implantable electronic devices has inevitably increased the need for lead revision/replacement. We report our experience in percutaneous extraction of transvenous permanent pacemaker/defibrillator leads. METHODS Thirty-six patients admitted to our centre from September 2005 through October 2012 for percutaneous lead extraction were included. Lead re...
متن کاملOne-Year Follow-Up of Patients Undergoing Transvenous Extraction of Pacemaker and Defibrillator Leads
INTRODUCTION The number of pacemaker and ICD implantations has increased substantially in the recent years. Therefore, complications are also observed in a greater number. In many cases, transvenous extraction of the previously implanted device (pacemaker or ICD) is the only solution. One may find in the literature information about the efficacy and safety of that procedure, but data concerning...
