Sex-specific short- and long-term outcomes in patients with leadless cardiac pacemakers
No sex-specific disparities were observed with respect to complications during index stay, in-hospital and all-cause mortality. Less frequent use of LCP therapy in women may relate to differing indications between sexes. Further prospective studies may help to develop sex-specific recommendations for LCP therapy.
