Survey on the paramedical role in the remote monitoring of cardiac implantable electronic devices in France.

Remote monitoring of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) has become an expansive priority in many European countries, with nurses playing a central role in it. In France, a national survey for paramedics was set up to assess the organization of remote monitoring in the different institutions and to determine the paramedical role. A self-administered questionnaire (supplementary material), developed and validated by the College of Paramedics in partnership with the Working Group of Pacing and Electrophysiology of the French Society of Cardiology (SFC).
