Popis: BACKGROUND A proportion of patients who undergo an initial lead extraction procedure will require a second, repeat extraction. Data regarding this clinical entity are scarce and neither the predisposing risk factors for, nor outcomes from, these procedures have been described previously. We sought to determine the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of repeat lead extraction. METHODS A database of extraction procedures from 2001 to 2015 was analyzed. Repeat extraction procedures were identified and the indication for extraction was dichotomized into infection and lead-related problems. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify predictors of repeat extraction. RESULTS 807 extraction procedures were identified in 755 patients of whom 6% required a repeat extraction. At multivariate analysis, only suffering a major complication at the initial extraction procedure (odds ratio [OR] 21.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.69-171.92; P
