## TL;DR

Leadless pacemakers are becoming more popular due to their benefits over traditional devices and are now being used in a wider range of patients.

## Contribution

The paper highlights the expanded use and benefits of leadless pacemakers in diverse patient populations.

## Key findings

- Leadless pacemakers reduce morbidity compared to traditional devices.
- They are now suitable for younger patients and those previously excluded.
- Future improvements will increase their availability and effectiveness.

## Abstract

Leadless pacemakers are being used with increased frequency due to improvements in the technologies, and the recognition of the substantial benefits over traditional transvenous devices. Current information shows a substantial reduction in morbidity with leadless devices which has resulted in a significant expansion in the indication for these devices. Patient selection now includes a younger population as well as those commonly excluded from consideration. Understanding these new applications will allow a larger group of patients to benefit from the significant advantages of leadless devices while not compromising quality and effective pacing. Further improvements in this technology will result in even more availability of these transformative devices.
