Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Registry for patients undergoing pacemaker/ICD implantation including a transtricuspid lead with and without intraprocedural transesophageal echocardiography to evaluate risk factors for lead induced tricuspid regurgitation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Lead induced tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding after pacemaker/ICD Implantation. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) might be used to guide lead implantations in order to prevent tricuspid regurgitation.

In this registry, patients undergoing pacemaker/ICD implantation including a transtricuspid lead are enrolled. While in most patients lead implantation is guided by fluroscopy, in some patients lead implantation is guided by TEE in addition to fluroscopy.

Aims of this registry: Evaluation of

* Incidence of lead induced tricuspid regurgitation
* Mortality and morbidity of lead induced tricuspid regurgitation
* Identification of risk factors for lead induced tricuspid regurgitation
* Influence of the lead position within the tricuspid valve on the incidence of lead induced tricuspid regurgitation
* Prevention of lead induced tricuspid regurgitation by TEE-guided lead implantation

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Lead implantation with transesophageal echocardiography

All patients undergoing pacemaker/CRT implantation with concomitant transesophageal echocardiography in addition to fluoroscopic guidance

Transesophageal guidance of lead implantation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

In patients undergoing lead implantation including transesophageal echocardiography for clinical reasons (e.g. intraprocedural cardioversion), echocardiography was also used for guidance of lead implantation to reduce lead-leaflet interactions

Lead implantation without transesophageal echocardiography (retrospective)

All patients undergoing standard pacemaker/CRT implantation guided by fluoroscopy only (retrospective historical control group)

No interventions assigned to this group
