Pacemaker Lead Dysfunction, Manual Traction
Conditions
Brief summary
The number of implantable cardiac rhythm devices is increasing. As a result, the number of patients requiring lead extraction is increasing. In this study, authors aimed to present their experience with lead extraction using manual traction.
Detailed description
Objectives: The number of implantable cardiac rhythm devices is increasing. As a result, the number of patients requiring lead extraction is increasing. In this study, authors aimed to present our experience with lead extraction using manual traction. Methods: Patients (n=130) who underwent lead extraction by manual traction without the use of lead extraction devices (extraction sheaths, locking stylets, etc.) manufactured for extraction at our hospital between 2016 and 2021 were reviewed. Patient characteristics, indications for extraction, procedural success, complications, and mortality were evaluated.
Interventions
The pacemaker or ICD lead extraction with manually.
