Comparison Between Early and Late Mobilization After Cardiac Device Implantation

Not Applicable
Conditions
Pacemaker, Artificial
Registration Number
NCT03530904
Lead Sponsor
Carmel Medical Center
Brief Summary

Mobilization after cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) implantation is highly variable between centers, some discharging home after 3-4 hours while others request bed restriction for 24 hours. Concern about lead dislodgements due to early mobilization are probably not justified. Bed restriction may result in considerable inconvenience to the patients.

Detailed Description

Mobilization after cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) implantation is highly variable between centers, some discharging home after 3-4 hours while others request bed restriction for 24 hours. Concern about lead dislodgements due to early mobilization are probably not justified. Bed restriction may result in considerable inconvinience to the patients.

Patients will be randomally assigned to early mobilization (after 4 hours) or bed restriction till the morning after the procedure.

Primary outcome: lead malfunction, patients' satisfaction
