Assessment of Trend, Indication, Complications, and Outcomes of Pacemaker Implantation in Adult Patients at Tertiary Hospital of Ethiopia: Retrospective Follow Up Study.

Background: A pacemaker is a device implanted in the chest to help people with symptomatic bradycardia and life-threatening irregular rhythm. However, it is also associated with many complications. Therefore, this study evaluated pacemaker-related complications and factors associated with them, as there is little data on pacemaker-related complications in sub-Saharan Africa and Ethiopia.
