| Popis: | Background/Introduction There are growing numbers of transvenous implantable devices for patients requiring permanent pacemakers (PPM) as well as Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICD). As such, there has been a concomitant increased need for lead extraction. Lead extraction is associated with increased morbidity and mortality (Hamid, 2010). Comparative outcomes of repeat lead extraction are not extensively studied. Purpose We compared demographics as well as major and minor adverse outcomes in patients undergoing first time vs. repeat lead extraction procedures. Methods In our single center study, 1278 extractions took place between January 2004 and December of 2018. Of these 1177 patients underwent PPM or ICD lead extraction for the first time; 101 patients underwent repeat extractions. Baseline characteristics including gender, history of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, hypertension (HTN), systolic heart failure (HF) defined as ejection fraction Results Comparing first time extractions vs repeat extractions, there was no significant difference in proportion of patients of female gender (32.4% vs. 28.3%, p=0.412), patients with prior CABG (23.0 vs. 23.4%, p=0.227), HTN (66.0% vs. 62.2%, p=0.462), HF (52.3% vs. 62.0%), HLD (39.6% vs 39.7%, p=0.682), DM (35.3% vs. 30.8%, p=0.387), or CAD (55.9% vs 56.0%, p=0.978). There was no significant difference in major complications (1.4% vs. 1.0%, p=0.749) and minor complications (3.5% vs 4.1%, p=0.741). Conclusion Patients undergoing repeat lead extractions showed very similar baseline demographics compared to first time lead extractions. Repeat extractions did not have increased rates of major or minor complications. |
