Figure 1. Kaplan-Meier survival curve from all-cause death
following leadless pacemaker implantation. Central panel : zoom in
perioperative period (≤30 days post- implantation).
Figure 2. Right upper panel : the Micra transcatheter
pacing system is a small 26 millimeters long pacing device (0.8 cubic
centimeters, 2 grams), with nitinol tines allowing passive fixation
within myocardium. Right lower panel : usual final positioning of
leadless pacemakers on the right ventricular low septum, through a
femoral venous approach. Left panel : chest X-Ray (film negative)
of a patient implanted with a leadless pacemaker (LPM), with right and
left jugular central lines (RJVL and LJVL, respectively), and an
orotracheal ventilation tube (VT).
