Descriptive characterization of patients
characterizing features: * hemodynamic instability requiring mechanical intensive-care management * tamponade * stroke * cardiac arrest * myocardial infarction * coronary artery dissection * phrenic nerve palsy * major bleeding as per the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) * vascular or cardiac complication requiring surgery or interventional management (interventional radiology, angiology) * iatrogenic atrio-ventricular block requiring device implantation or upgrade. * procedure-related death
Time frame: up to 30 days
Prevalence of each severe complication
Time frame: up to 30 days
Difference in baseline characteristics between the patients who experienced a complication and the ones who did not
Time frame: up to 30 days
The contribution of important baseline and procedural characteristics to the occurrence of a severe complication
Time frame: up to 30 days
Impact of center-specific data on the occurrence and management of these complications
Case-load of the centers, number of electrophysiologists, geographic hospital location, routine use of ICE (Intracardiac Echocardiography)
Time frame: up to 30 days
