Atrioventricular Conduction Disturbances in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Intervention
- Narrative review
Study context
- Population
- Patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Risk of AV conduction disturbances and pacemaker lead-related adverse events after transcatheter TV interventions (narrative review)
- Risk of high-degree AV block and permanent pacemaker implantation remains important; common adverse events after transcatheter valve replacement
- A significant number of patients have cardiac implantable electronic devices with leads that may worsen tricuspid regurgitation (TR) or complicate the procedure
- Management algorithm proposed for conduction disturbances after tricuspid valve (TV) intervention and for patients with permanent leads undergoing transcatheter interventions
