Goal: Provide appropriate care to patients living with implanted cardiac devices while limiting exposure to staff and patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Every effort should be made to perform CIED interrogation via remote monitoring (RM) rather than in-person visits.
This includes:
Initiation of RM at time of CIED implantation
Enrollment of all non-enrolled CIED patients into RM (preferable enrollment at home with telephone support)
Continuation of RM for all CIEDs previously enrolled in RM
Conversion of all routine CIED evaluation office visits to RM visits
Request RM check prior to Virtual Visits, if visit separate from CIED interrogation is needed
