(A) Annualized rate of major CIED infections by PADIT score. Blue line represents a population similar to the original PADIT risk score analysis (no prior CIED infections) and the orange line represents patients with prior CIED infections. The insert depicts the original PADIT risk score analysis scaled up for clarity. Rates unadjusted for patient, as multiple index procedures per patient were included; only one major CIED infection was allowed per index procedure. (B) Annualized Rate of Major CIED Infections by PADIT score excluding non-de novo first procedures. In the inset, the blue line represents a population similar to the original PADIT risk score analysis (no prior CIED infections) and the orange line represents patients with prior CIED infections. The main figure depicts the original PADIT risk score analysis scaled up for clarity. Non-de novo first procedures were excluded as the number of prior procedures was uncertain owing to lack of this component of the patient history; this analysis was restricted to index procedures for which sufficient patient history was available to determine a PADIT score. The sample size with PADIT score 10–13 was combined due to low numbers. CIED, cardiac implantable electronic device; PADIT, Prevention of Arrhythmia Device Infection Trial.
