    Author: DeSimone DC, Sohail MR.
    Journal: Card Electrophysiol Clin; 2018 Dec; 10(4):601-607. PubMed ID: 30396574.
    Abstract:
    Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) and the indications for their use have significantly risen over the past decades to include patients who are older with more medical comorbidities. Predictably, the rates of CIED infection have increased substantially. CIED infection is associated with high morbidity, mortality, and financial costs. This article discusses the appropriate management of CIED infections, which is imperative to limit the problems associated with infection.
