Generator-induced shoulder impairment is a common complication of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation. Although implantable cardioverter–defibrillators (ICDs) have become smaller in size, they are still bigger than pacemakers (PMs). This study aimed to investigate the effects of single-chamber PM and ICD sizes on shoulder function.

心脏植入式电子设备患者肩部受限和残疾的预测因素：设备尺寸的重要性

发电机引起的肩部损伤是心脏植入式电子设备 (CIED) 植入的常见并发症。尽管植入式心脏复律除颤器 (ICD) 的尺寸变得更小，但它们仍然比起搏器 (PM) 大。本研究旨在调查单腔 PM 和 ICD 大小对肩部功能的影响。
