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 -- Better indicators of high-grade atrioventricular (AV) conduction system abnormalities following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) could be gleaned from an intraprocedural ...

Bradycardia due to sinus node dysfunction and atrioventricular block is more commonly observed in the elderly. Aging is associated with progressive fibrosis in both the sinus node and atrioventricular ...

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

The R12 and R14 waves hold the key to the answer (Figures 2 and 3). These two QRS complexes are narrow and occur slightly earlier than others. They are PJCs and occur late enough to have a sinus P ...

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 ...

NEW YORK, NY—High-grade atrioventricular (AV) block occurs within 1 month for roughly one in seven patients who undergo transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR), according to new results from ...

The leads were removed with manual traction alone in 91% of the 341 patients, with a rate of 90% for leads attached to the His bundle and 92% for those placed in the left bundle branch area, ...
