| Predictors of the risk of major complications | Value |
|---|---|
| 1. Patient age during TLE (Years) | |
| 2. Patient age at first CIED implantation (Years) | |
| 3. Age of oldest lead to be removed (Years) | |
| 4. Age of oldest lead to be removed / patient age during TLE (Years) | |
| 5. Number of leads to be extracted | |
| 6. Number of abandoned leads to be extracted | |
| 7. Number of previous CIED-related procedures (including implantation) | |
| 8. Passive fixation leads to be extracted (except LV leads) |
