Leadless Pacing: Therapy, Challenges and Novelties

Leadless Pacing: Therapy, Challenges and Novelties Leadless devices are the next frontier in the field of cardiac pacing. While conventional pacing systems have a long history of widespread use and a robust evidence base, leadless technology is attractive in its potential to subvert the long-term issues inherent to transvenous leads, such as fracture (1 –4%), tricuspid regurgitation (5%) and infection (1–2%).1 The first leadless right ventricular (RV) pacing device, the Nanos...
