A handful of nonmodifiable anatomic factors could help further pinpoint patients at high risk for needing a permanent pacemaker after TAVR with the Sapien 3 valve. In a single-center study, the risk ...
Clinical pacemakers save lives. Implanted in patients’ hearts to keep them beating regularly, the devices are an important part of modern healthcare in the fight against potentially fatal arrhythmias.
Seventy-two patients (1.4%) required permanent pacemaker implantation. Indications for PPM implantation included: (i) complete atrioventricular (AV) block in 59; of these, 35 were immediate in onset ...

Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...
In patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement with a next-generation valve, deeper implantation and prosthesis oversizing appear to be associated with a higher rate of new conduction ...
