Management von Komplikationen bei kardialen Device-Operationen
摘要
Despite declining complication rates, the implantation of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) remains a procedure with a significant risk of peri- and postoperative complications. In CIED implantation, acute complications must be taken into account, and their occurrence can be minimized through a standardized, evidence-based approach. However, complications that develop over a longer period of time are more difficult to detect and treat. A particular challenge in this context is the evaluation of suspected CIED infection. This article provides a practice-oriented overview of how to recognize, correctly manage, and prevent complications associated with cardiac device procedures.
