Events
There were no cases of cardiovascular mortality or rehospitalization due to cardiac events. We observed two cases of pacing failure in the IPT group; however, the devices were not re-implanted. There were only two cases of complications: one case of lymph leakage at the puncture site in the IPT group and one case of pericardial effusion not requiring intervention in the SPT group. No other major complications were noted in either group.
