Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 06/01/09
Sopeña B et al. - Early-onset and late-onset PEP-related bacteraemia differ regarding the microorganism involved, the clinical presentation, and the prognosis. When the pacing system is involved, a complete explantation of the device is necessary to cure the infection. However, most episodes of bacteraemia arising outside the PEP, mainly those not caused by S. aureus, can be conservatively managed.
