Background: Chagas cardiomyopathy (ChCC) is responsible for the implantation of pacemaker (PM) in many patients and has been associated with an adverse prognosis. Objectives: To compare the prognosis of the chagasic and non-chagasic population undergoing PM and cardiac resynchronizer implantation. Methods: Observational, retrospective study, which analyzed a cohort of patients who underwent implantation of these devices, in a tertiary center, from October 2007 to December 2017, comparing the group of chagasic with non-chagasic patients. The primary outcome was mortality from any cause, while the secondary outcomes were the occurrence of hospitalization and the combined outcome of hospitalization and death. Results: A total of 911 patients were included, of which 23.4% had ChCC. In a Cox analysis adjusted for sex and age, Chagas disease (ChD) was not associated with an increased risk of death (HR: 1.14, CI:95%, 0.86-1.51, p=0.365), hospitalization (HR: 0.79, CI:95%, 0.61-1.04, p=0.09) or combined outcome of death and hospitalization (HR: 0.90, CI:95%, 0.72-1 .12, p=0.49). Conclusions: ChD was not associated with an increased risk of death, hospitalization, or combined outcome of death and hospitalization, even after adjustment for sex and age. Similar studies have not yet been published in the current literature specifically considering the chagasic population with cardiac devices, and new studies are needed to confirm these findings.
