Overview

L-PM was associated with fewer late complications than T-PM; leaves open whether randomized trials will confirm benefit and shift device selection.

Structured PICO

Do leadless transcatheter pacemakers reduce device-related complications compared to transvenous pacemakers in patients requiring pacing?

P
Population
Patients requiring pacemaker implantation in an Italian multicentre large population analysis
I
Intervention
Leadless transcatheter pacemakers (L-PM)
C
Comparator
Transvenous pacemakers (T-PM)
O
Outcome
Device-related complications (early and late)safety

Leadless pacemakers are associated with a significantly lower risk of late device-related complications compared to traditional transvenous pacemakers, with similar early complication rates.
