Abstract
The mortality rate of super-elderly patients who had no critical illnesses and were healthy enough to walk unassisted at the time of PM implantation was not inferior to that of younger patients. Prognosis was determined by comorbidities, but not by age, PM indication, initial rhythm, pacing leads, or mode.
