Abstract

The Micra™ leadless pacemaker (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) is indicated for the management of symptomatic bradycardia and advanced heart block. However, the safety of this procedure during pregnancy has not been studied. Here, we present a unique case of Micra™ leadless pacemaker implantation (MLP) in a 31 weeks pregnant patient with intermittent complete heart block who presented with multiple syncopal episodes. The patient underwent an MLP implantation with <40 mGy radiation exposure (about 0.6 min of total fluoroscopy time), which is deemed a negligible dose of radiation exposure during pregnancy. Her subsequent hospital course was uneventful, and she was safely discharged home and was able to continue her pregnancy and delivery without further syncopal episodes or incidence of heart block.
