Factors including male sex, baseline conduction disturbances and intraprocedural atrioventricular block were associated with increased risk for permanent pacemaker implantation in patients with severe ...

Physiologic pacing of the His-Purkinje conduction system is feasible in patients who require a permanent pacemaker following TAVR and this alternative pacing method did not interfere with ejection ...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA—Conduction abnormalities like complete heart block (CHB) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) remain common in today’s TAVI patients, with some facing pacemaker implantation or even ...

Conduction system pacing (CSP) produced the same degree of cardiac resynchronization, ventricular reverse modeling, and similar clinical outcomes as did biventricular pacing (BiVP) in patients with ...

Some consider 2:1 AV block to be type II block, claiming that the PR interval doesn't lengthen. What they don't realize is that determining whether the PR interval lengthens requires at least 2 ...

INJURY to the invisible subendocardial conduction system during surgical closure of congenital defects in the ventricular septum is an uncommon but extremely grave complication. 1,2 Impalement of ...
