Prediction of 5-Year Mortality After Transvenous Lead Extraction: Development and Validation of a Logistic Risk Model Based on a List of Independent Factors Estimated 5-year Survival (LIFE-5S)

The LIFE-5S model provides accurate, individualized prediction of 5-year mortality after TLE and outperforms existing tools limited to short-term outcomes. Its simplicity and strong validation support integration into clinical decision-making and patient follow-up after lead extraction.
