Abstract
2011 Guidelines for follow-up of patients with implanted cardiac pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators
The number of pacemaker and implantable cardioverter defibrillator patients followed up in Switzerland
has been steadily increasing over the last years.
With the aim of ensuring the quality of follow-up of these patients, the Swiss Society of Cardiology has published relevant guidelines in 2000 and 2005. The European Heart Rhythm Association introduced accreditation for cardiac pacing in 2006, and defined the core curriculum for recognition as a heart rhythm specialist in 2009. Following these developments, and in order to maintain coherence with European recommendations, it was deemed necessary to update the Swiss guidelines.
