Successful leadless intracardiac pacemaker for delayed onset bradyarrhythmia after spinal cord injury

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: CONTEXT: Bradyarrhythmias are typically an early consequence of spinal cord injury (SCI). FINDINGS: A 30-year-old woman with high cervical SCI developed symptomatic delayed-bradyarrhythmia six years post-injury. CONCLUSION/CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This case provides evidence of delayed-bradyarrhythmia status due to autonomic dysfunction after SCI. Leadless permanent pacemakers are an effective and safe treatment alternative to traditional pacemakers.
