Implication
May support transappendage atrial lead placement during tricuspid surgery; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before wider use.
Structured PICO
P
Population
1 patient who had tricuspid valve replacement
I
Intervention
Dual-chamber pacing using a ventricular epicardial lead and an atrial endocardial lead placed through the wall of the atrial appendage
O
Outcome
Pacing function at 5 years follow-up
Placing an atrial endocardial lead through the wall of the atrial appendage during tricuspid valve replacement is a viable technique for long-term dual-chamber pacing.
