dc.description.abstractFor several decades, highly refined cardiac implantable elec-tronic devices (CIED) are used to prevent and manage various types of cardiac pathology, which have saved the lives of many patients. Cardiac implantable electronic devices help maintain and improve the quality of life by regulating the heart rate, ter-minating life-threatening arrhythmias, and improving systolic function, including pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defi-brillators, and cardiac resynchronization therapy devices. Re-gardless of the benefits received after its implantation, in some cases, serious complication has appeared, such as CIED infec-tions, associated with severe morbidity, mortality, financial ex-penses and changes in the quality of life. Exactly, in this article will be addressed the issues of prevention, diagnosis, and treat-ment of this condition, which will help specialists to properly assess the problem and to find a way to effectively solve iten_US
