Second Micra leadless pacemaker implantation by using intracardiac echocardiography.

ABSTRACT

The strategy after battery depletion was not established in Micra leadless pacemaker system (Micra). There are still some concerns in the 2nd Micra implantation, such as the mechanical interaction between both devices. The position of the 2nd Micra should be placed apart from the 1st Micra. We present a case of 1st Micra battery depletion who successfully underwent the 2nd Micra implantation under the intracardiac echo guidance. In our case, intracardiac echo was a very effective tool for confirming the location of Micra implantation.
