Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • CIED infections

    CIED infections occurring in an observation period of three months after any CIED related surgical procedure in different CIED using a regimen with surface disinfection of CIEDs and irrigation of the surgical site (pocket) with a taurolidine containing antimicrobial compound adjunct.

    three months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • CIED infections

    12 months

  • CIED infections

    36 months

  • AE

    3, 12 and 36 months

  • All-cause mortality

    3, 12 and 36 months

Interventions

TauroPace™ is intended to be used as a disinfecting solution during any CIED related surgery procedure or handling of any uncoated or silicon-, epoxy- or polyurethane-coated CIED (including its components, e.g., leads) made of titan or stainless steel in any adult patient requiring or carrying a CIED.
