Comparison of prognosis and safety of pacemaker implantation in patients aged less than or 85 years and older

Comparison of prognosis and safety of pacemaker implantation in patients aged less than or 85 years and older

Purpose Cardiac conduction disturbance necessitating pacemaker implantation is common among elderly patients. However, patients often have comorbidities and increased frailty which may result in limited life prognosis and a high rate of procedure-related complications. We evaluated pacemaker implant...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose Cardiac conduction disturbance necessitating pacemaker implantation is common among elderly patients. However, patients often have comorbidities and increased frailty which may result in limited life prognosis and a high rate of procedure-related complications. We evaluated pacemaker implantation in older patients by comparing life prognosis and complication rate in patients aged ≥ and
