Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) is associated with a high risk of third-degree atrioventricular block (AVB). However, the optimal pacemaker management following TTVR remains unclear. This study aims to identify an optimal therapeutic approach for pacemaker implantation in patients undergoing TTVR.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
25
Deutsches Herzzentrum München
München, Bavaria, Germany
RECRUITINGSuccess
The number of patients in whom the initially chosen pacemaker implantation approach was successfully performed, relative to all pacemaker implantations following TTVI.
Time frame: at the time of surgery
Feasibility
Successful pacemaker implantation, regardless of the type of pacemaker, in relation to all patients with a relevant indication following TTVR.
Time frame: at the time of surgery
Safety
Peri- and postprocedural complications associated with pacemaker implantation after TTVR.
Time frame: through study completion (an average of 6 Months)
Type of Pacemaker Implantation
eg. Leadless, right ventricular lead, coronary sinus lead, epicardial lead
Time frame: at the time of surgery
Pacemaker Implantation - Procedural Details
Procedural Details of the pacemaker Implantation, e.g. Fluoroscopy Time, OP-Duration.
Time frame: at the time of surgery
Electric Performance
Performance of the electrical pacemaker parameters (e.g. Sensing, Stimulation Threshold, Impedance). Intraoperative measurements and routine device-interrogations in follow-Up.
Time frame: at the time of surgery, through study completion (an average of 6 Months)
