pubmed:abstractText |
Cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) infection rates are increasing faster than implantation rates. More effective antimicrobial prophylaxis may help reduce CIED infections and improve clinical outcomes. The AIGIS(Rx)(®) antibacterial envelope is a polymer mesh implanted in the generator pocket with the CIED. After implantation it releases two antibiotics, minocycline and rifampin, that have been shown to reduce infections associated with other medical devices. The purpose of this retrospective cohort study is to determine the rate of CIED implantation success and CIED infection in procedures utilizing the antibacterial envelope.
