Summary
The insertion of a permanent pacemaker (PPM) is frequently a life-saving procedure. However, the implantation process could sometimes lead to a rare but serious infection. Therefore, administering prophylactic antibiotics to prevent infections before they occur, is a useful strategy to lower the risk of such infections. Nonetheless, the optimal duration of prophylactic antibiotics for PPM remains uncertain. Individual study results are ambiguous and debatable due to the fact that each center has its own policy governing the regimen for prophylactic antibiotic use. Accordingly, the goal of this clinical trial is to assess and compare the effectiveness of two types of widely used prophylactic antibiotic durations in relation to the risk of infections following PPM implantations. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the efficacy of different durations of prophylactic antibiotics (single dosage vs 3-day dosage) in preventing infective complications following PPM implantations? 2. What factors may influence the optimum use of prophylactic antibiotics for individual patients undergoing PPM implantation to minimize the risk of infective complications? Researchers will compare a single dosage vs a 3-day dosage of prophylactic antibiotics following the PPM implantation procedure to see the risk of device-related infections. Participants will: * Be given a single-dose or 3-days dose of antibiotic regarding the PPM installations. * Visit the clinic for follow-ups and tests.
