Taiwan Registry for Leadless Pacemaker

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1. 1Since this is an invitation-only registry, can you tell me whether I would even be considered for this, and what criteria are being used to invite patients with sick sinus syndrome or atrioventricular block like mine?
2. 2This study is tracking acute and subacute complications with the leadless pacemaker — what kinds of complications have been seen so far in other leadless pacemaker studies, and how does that compare to getting a traditional pacemaker with leads?
3. 3Since this is a registry rather than a randomized trial, does that mean it's mainly collecting data on how the leadless pacemaker performs in real-world use in Taiwan, rather than testing whether it works better than something else — and how does that affect what I'd gain by participating?
4. 4Would you recommend the leadless pacemaker as the right choice for my specific type of heart rhythm problem right now, or is a conventional pacemaker still considered the standard approach for my condition?
5. 5What would my follow-up schedule look like if I were part of this registry, and are there any additional visits or monitoring requirements beyond what I'd have with normal pacemaker care?
