Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants who have previously had a transvenous cardiac device implanted between 2009 to 2017 will be followed up with an annual echocardiogram up to 10 years post-cardiac device implantation, to investigate pulmonary artery pressure.

Early Detection / Screening
Comparator / control treatment
an age-matched group of patients without CIED undergoing echocardiogram between 2009 to 2017 will be established to serve as controls.

Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 324105 0

Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
99 Years

Statistical methods / analysis
List of participants will be taken from the list of patients who underwent CIED implants from 2007 to 2017.
Normally distributed continuous data will be expressed as mean ± standard deviation and tested with unpaired t-tests between groups. Skewed distributions will be expressed as median and inter-quartile and means tested using Mann-Whitney U. All significant covariates in the univariate analysis were included in the imputation model to improve the accuracy of generating replacements for missing values. A Cox proportional-hazards analysis was performed to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) Multivariable models additionally adjusted for age and gender. Variables in the multivariable models represent the most common confounding or mediating factors of the association between CIED and high likelihood of PH. Survival curves with 95% CIs and corresponding number at risk tables are presented. A p value < 0.005 was considered to be statistically significant.
