Implantation and Follow-Up of Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices

The BHRS has updated the standards on Implantation and Follow-Up of Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices. The guidance included leadless pacemakers, sub-cutaneous defibrillators and conduction system pacing. There is information on infection minimisation at the time of implantation, and a new section on the evaluation of patients whose battery is low when box-change is being contemplated.
