Two-year outcomes of Micra AV leadless pacemakers in the Micra AV CED study.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Leadless pacing is a safe and effective alternative to transvenous pacing for bradycardia. Micra AV is a leadless, single-device solution that provides atrioventricular synchronous ventricular pacing therapy. Early results from the Micra AV CED study showed reductions in short-term complications associated with the Micra AV leadless pacemaker among US Medicare patients. The objective of this study is to compare chronic complications, re-interventions, and all-cause mortality at 2 years between patients implanted with a Micra AV leadless pacemaker and a traditional dual-chamber transvenous (DC-TV) pacemaker.

Methods and results

Patients implanted with a Micra AV leadless pacemaker (n = 7552) or a DC-TV pacemaker (n = 110 558) in 2020 and 2021 were identified using device
