The aim of this study is to investigate the predictive factors of early complications. Methods: Cross-sectional study of the cohort of patients fitted between January 2011 and January 2018 at the cardiology department of Habib Thameur hospital in Tunis. Results: 441 patients were included. The mean age was 66.5   11.1 years, 53.5% of patients were male and 54% of patients were diabetic. All patients had type 2 diabetes. Early mortality and morbidity rates were 0.22% (n=1) and 7.48% (n=33) respectively. Complications were pneumothorax in 18 cases (4.08%), infection of the lodge in 5 cases (1.13%), hematoma in 3 cases (0.68%) and catheter displacement in 3 cases (0.68%), cardiac perforation in 2 cases (0.45%) and thromboembolic complications in 2 cases (0.45%). In multivariate analysis, diabetes was the strongest independent predictor of the occurrence of infectious complications (OR =2.23 (CI:1.04-4.77), p=0.038).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.13 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 10, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46586127909061,"sku":"9786204069913","price":71.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/ru5ut6Gip19786204069913.webp?v=1784884710","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/early-complications-of-pacemakers-and-defibrillators-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
