Prior studies suggest increased rates of noise on the Tendril (St Jude Medical/Abbott, St. Paul, MN, USA) pacemaker lead. We aim to assess the incidence of lead noise in the Tendril and 5076 (Medtronic PLC, Minneapolis, MN, USA) pacemaker leads in our cohort and in the process assess the utility of remote monitoring for identifying lead malfunction.
Deidentified, multi-centre, prospectively collected observational cohort data was obtained to assess the incidence of noise on the Tendril and 5076 pacemaker leads.
148 Tendril and 737 CapSureFix Novus 5076 (Medtronic, MN, USA) pacemaker leads were remotely monitored. Incidence of noise on the Tendril was 8% and 0.27% on the CapSureFix Novus.
Rates of noise in the Tendril lead are higher than a market competitor. Remote monitoring is useful in detecting this concerning anomaly.
先前的研究表明 Tendril（圣犹达医疗用品公司/雅培，明尼苏达州圣保罗市，美国）起搏器导联的噪声发生率增加。我们旨在评估 Tendril 和 5076（美敦力公司，明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市，美国）起搏器导联在我们的队列中的噪声发生率，并在此过程中评估远程监测用于识别导联故障的实用性。
获得了经过去识别、多中心、前瞻性收集的观察队列数据，以评估 Tendril 和 5076 起搏器导联上的噪声发生率。
远程监测了 148 根 Tendril 和 737 根 CapSureFix Novus 5076（美敦力，明尼苏达州，美国）起搏器导联。Tendril 导联上的噪声发生率为 8%，CapSureFix Novus 导联上的噪声发生率为 0.27%。
Tendril 导联的噪声发生率高于市场竞争对手。远程监测有助于检测到这种令人担忧的异常情况。
