The rates for procedural minor (p = 0.684) and major complications (p = 0.498), as well as procedural success (p = 0.437), procedure-related (p = 0.533) and all-cause mortality (p = 0.333) were not different between groups.

Lead age ≥10 years (OR: 3.25; 95% CI: 1,31-8.10; p = 0.011) and abandoned leads (OR: 3.08; 95% CI: 1.03-9.22; p = 0.044) were predictors of procedural complications, while patient age ≥75 years seemed protective (OR: 0.27; 95% CI: 0.08-0.93; p = 0.039).
