The monitoring requirements for endocardial lead extraction are somewhat more demanding than those for a permanent pacemaker procedure. In addition to reliable electrocardiographic monitoring, it is recommended that intra-arterial monitoring also be carried out. This helps to readily detect any sudden change or drop in blood pressure caused by a vascular tear or tamponade. [Pg.271]

The surgical instruments for endocardial lead extraction are identical to those for a permanent pacemaker procedure, which merely requires a minor surgical tray with a limited number of instruments. A standard thoracotomy tray should be readily available in addition to a minor surgical set. A pneumatic thoracotomy saw and/or sternotomy saw should be available in the operating room and even in the catheterization laboratory, in case a thoracotomy or sternotomy is required. Unlike the permanent pacemaker procedure, lead extraction should have a source of reliable suction readily available. [Pg.271]
