Brief summary
Cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections have been increasing out of proportion to the number of devices implanted We investigated recent trends and possible causes of the increasing numbers of Cardiovascular implantable electronic device infections.
Detailed description
There are many studies on the preventive use of Antibiotics or povidone iodine to Cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infections. But, studies of prophylactic use of hydrogen peroxide is still limited. We had planned research on effects of preventive using hydrogen peroxide before cardiac devices insertion.
Interventions
PROCEDUREHydrogen peroxide pretreatment group
Hydrogen peroxide pretreatment perform before cardiac devices Implantation. It disinfects the cardiac devices pocket using Hydrogen peroxide gauze.
