Abstract
BACKGROUND Leadless pacemakers have emerged as a promising alternative to transvenous pacemakers in patients with kidney disease. However, studies investigating leadless pacemaker outcomes and complications based on kidney dysfunction are limited. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the association of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) with inpatient complications and outcomes of leadless pacemaker implantations. METHODS National Inpatient Sample and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes were used to identify patients with CKD and ESRD who underwent leadless pacemaker implantations in the United States from 2016 to 2020. Study end points assessed included inpatient complications, outcomes, and resource utilization of leadless pacemaker implantations. RESULTS A total of 29,005 leadless pacemaker placements were identified. Patients with CKD (n = 5245 [18.1%]) and ESRD (n = 3790 [13.1%]) were younger than patients without CKD and had higher prevalence of important comorbidities. In crude analysis, ESRD was associated with higher prevalence of major complications, peripheral vascular complications, and inpatient mortality. After multivariable adjustment, CKD and ESRD were associated with inpatient mortality (CKD: adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.62 [95% CI, 1.40-1.86]; ESRD: aOR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.18-1.63]) and prolonged length of stay (CKD: aOR, 1.55 [95% CI, 1.46-1.66]; ESRD: aOR, 1.81 [95% CI 1.67-1.96]). ESRD was also associated with higher hospitalization costs (aOR, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.50-1.77) and major complications (aOR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.13-1.57) after leadless pacemaker implantation. CONCLUSION Approximately one-third of patients undergoing leadless pacemaker implantation had CKD or ESRD. CKD and ESRD were associated with greater length and cost of stay and inpatient mortality.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are frequently interconnected and their association leads to an exponential increase in the risk of both fatal and non-fatal events. In addition, the burden of arrhythmias in CKD patients is increased. On the other hand, the presence of CKD is an important factor that influences the decision to pursue cardiac device therapy. Data on CKD patients with device therapy are scarce and mostly derives from observational studies and case reports. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is associated with decreased mortality, reduced heart failure symptoms, and improved renal function in early stages of CKD. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are associated with a significant reduction in the mortality of CKD patients only for the secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) is preferred in patients who meet the established criteria. The need for cardiac pacing is increased three-fold in dialysis patients. CKD is an independent risk factor for infections associated with cardiac devices.

Device-related infection and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease receiving cardiac implantable electronic devices: a propensity score-matched cohort study. BMC Infect Dis 2023; 23:787. [PMID: 37957553 PMCID: PMC10644567 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-023-08773-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was reported to be a risk factor of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) infection. The application of bundled skin antiseptic preparation before CIED implantation decreased the risk of CIED infection, even in patients undergoing complex procedures. However, the effect of bundled skin antiseptic preparation to prevent CIED infection in patients with CKD was not tested. METHODS Between July 2012 and December 2019, 1668 patients receiving CIEDs comprised this retrospective cohort study and were categorized into two groups by the diagnosis of CKD: group with CKD (n = 750, 45%) and group without CKD (n = 918, 55%). The primary outcome was clinical CIED infection, including major and minor infection, and the secondary outcomes were cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to reduce selection bias between the study groups. RESULTS During a 4-year follow-up period, 30 patients (1.8%) had a CIED infection. After PSM, the incidence of CIED infection was similar between the patients with CKD and without CKD (1.0% vs. 1.8%). The incidences of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality were higher in patients with CKD compared to patients without CKD (6.5% vs. 3.0%, P = 0.009; 22.8% vs. 11.8%, P < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION The incidence of clinical CIED infection in patients with CKD was as lower as in patients without CKD after applying the bundled skin antiseptic preparation strategy. The cumulative incidences of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality were significantly higher in the matched CIED recipients with CKD compared to the matched cohort without CKD.
