Ventricular Fibrillation Cardiopulmonary Arrest Following Micra TM Leadless Pacemaker Implantation.
Ventricular Fibrillation Cardiopulmonary Arrest Following Micra TM Leadless Pacemaker Implantation.
- 2021
Leadless cardiac pacemakers such as the Micra TM transcatheter leadless pacing system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) are an alternative to traditional transvenous pacemakers. Implantation of leadless pacemakers, albeit safe, may be associated with complications, including cardiac tamponade; high capture thresholds; and, rarely, ventricular arrhythmias. We report a case of ventricular fibrillation arrest following the implantation of a Micra TM leadless pacemaker. Copyright: (c) 2021 Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management.
