YANEZ-GUERRERO, A. Paola; NEACH, Diego; LEON-ROMERO, Fernando y NAVA, Santiago. Temporal stimulation by active fixation lead. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2023, vol.93, n.1, pp.22-25. Epub 24-Feb-2023. ISSN 1665-1731. https://doi.org/10.24875/acm.210003071.
Objective:
To determine the efficacy and safety of temporary pacing with an active fixation lead placed trough the internal jugular vein and/or subclavian vein.
Methods:
We analyzed a consecutive series of 25 out of 73 patients that had a pacemaker extraction and were pacing dependent requiring temporary pacing with an active fixation lead until the new pacemaker implant, from 2017 to 2021.
Results:
After extraction 25 patients age 68 years ±16 years, required temporary pacing, the media for temporary pacing was 5 days. There were no mortality associated to temporary stimulation. Only one patient (4%) had a complication 4 days after the implant with capture fail due to a microdislogement requiring reintervention.
Conclusion:
Temporary stimulation through active fixation pacemaker lead it is safe and effective.
