Abstract

This updated guidance is designed to help with implantation and follow-up with agreed standards of practice. The update includes new guidance on subcutaneous defibrillators, leadless pacemakers and conduction system pacing. It includes new guidance on considerations at the time of a potential box change and techniques to be considered to minimise the risk of infection.
