Background Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) have been increasingly used in the past years, There is arise in CIED related complications in the past years with the increase in the number of devices implanted, CIED associated infection is challenging in its management, including system removal (generator and leads ), antimicrobial therapy, replantation at another site. Objectives The aim of the study is to evaluate the adherence to the steps of infection control protocol in cardiac device implantation related infection . Patients and Methods One hundred patients referred for cardiac device implantation was enrolled in the study and prospectively evaluated regarding applying of infection control measures and followed up for six months to study effect of adherence to these measures in prevention of postoperative device related infection. Results analysis of all factors of infection control protocol revealed significant correlation between postoperative device related infection and the following factors, Age ( p value = 0.010) , DM ( p value = 0.024) and number of Operators≥4.0 ( p = 0.001) as well as duration of sterilization ( p = 0.001), wearing double gloves (p = &amp;lt;0.001). Conclusion Our results proved certain factors as significant risk factors for device related infection, they are either patient related factors including and diabetes mellitus or device related factors reflecting higher incidence with CRT devices (p = 0.025), others related to applying anti septic measures namely double glove technique and duration of skin disinfect prior to the procedure. Abbreviation list; CIED (cardiac implantable electronic devices), DRI (device related infection), CKD (chronic kidney disease), DM (diabetes mellitus), HTN (hypertension), CRT (cardiac resynchronization therapy), DDD (dual chamber device), VVI (ventricular demand pacing), ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator).
