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 ...

With the support of the NINDS Research Program Award, McIntyre will use patient-specific models to better understand how ...

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.

Cardiac pacemakers are limited by device-related complications, notably infection and problems related to pacemaker leads. We studied a miniaturized, fully self-contained leadless pacemaker that is ...

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 ...

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 ...
