Choosing a device after high-grade atrioventricular block in pediatric patients
Cardiac pacing in children is effective and safe, but no single approach fits all patients. Implantation strategies, device selection, and techniques should be individualized based on patient characteristics, anatomy, and long-term needs. Future improvements in device design, lead technology, and procedural approaches will further optimize outcomes and reduce complications in this population.
