Cardiac implantable electronic device infections: presentation, management, and patient outcomes.
BACKGROUND Indications for cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are increasing. Although CIED infections occur infrequently, the impact of this outcome is expected to be substantial. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to the evaluate the outcome of patients undergoing removal of infected CIEDs. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted of all patients with proven or suspect...
متن کاملInfections of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices
The use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), which includes permanent pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, has greatly increased over the past two decades. Unfortunately, along with the rising use of cardiac medical devices, there has been a disproportional increase in the number of infections of such devices [1]. The rates of infection of CIED range from 0.1% t...
متن کاملCardiovascular implantable electronic device infections: associated risk factors and prevention.
Infections of cardiovascular implantable electric devices (CIED) are a burden on patients and healthcare systems and should be prevented. The most frequent pathogens are coagulase-negative staphylococci and Staphylococcus aureus. The most important risk factors for CIED infections are diabetes mellitus, renal and heart failure, corticosteroid use, oral anticoagulation, fever within 24 hours bef...
متن کاملMicrobiology and pathogenesis of cardiovascular implantable electronic device infections.
Advancements in our understanding of cardiac conduction abnormalities and pathophysiology of congestive heart failure coupled with innovations in device manufacturing and programming have helped to create a demand for a plethora of newer cardiovascular devices over the past 3 decades. Appropriate use of cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) in carefully selected patients is asso...
متن کاملLead extractions in patients with cardiac implantable electronic device infections: Single center experience
BACKGROUND Lead extraction using laser sheaths is performed mainly for cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) infections. However, there are few reports concerning the management of CIED infections in Japan. METHODS AND RESULTS Lead extraction procedures were performed in 183 patients targeting 450 leads (atrial leads: 170, ventricular: 181, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs...
