The jugular approach for leadless pacing: A novel and safe alternative.

Aims: To evaluate safety of leadless pacemaker implantation through the internal jugular vein in a larger cohort with longer follow-up. Moreover, feasibility of non-apical pacing as well as relation between pacing site and QRS duration were assessed.

Methods: Eighty Two consecutive patients, who received a leadless pacemaker though the internal jugular vein, were included.
