Key result
Rapid ventricular pacing via the left ventricular wire was successfully performed in all 208 TAVI and BAV cases, eliminating the need for a temporary pacing wire in the vast majority of patients.
Why the study?
Does rapid ventricular pacing via the left ventricular support wire provide safe and effective pacing in patients undergoing TAVI or BAV?
Population

Does rapid ventricular pacing via the left ventricular support wire provide safe and effective pacing in patients undergoing TAVI or BAV?
Rapid ventricular pacing via the LV support wire is a feasible and effective strategy during TAVI and BAV, eliminating the need for a temporary right ventricular pacing wire in the vast majority of cases.
Hilling‐Smith et al. (2016) conducted an observational in Transcatheter aortic valve implantation and balloon aortic valvuloplasty (n=208). Rapid ventricular pacing via the left ventricular support wire was evaluated on Successful pacing through the LV wire. Rapid ventricular pacing via the left ventricular wire was successfully performed in all 208 TAVI and BAV cases, eliminating the need for a temporary pacing wire in the vast majority of patients.
