A higher RV pacing burden is associated with deleterious remodeling and congestive heart failure in patients with ATTR CA, whereas BiV pacing is associated with improvements in LVEF, NYHA class, and degree of MR. BiV pacing should be considered in patients with ATTR CA and an indication for pacing. However, further larger prospective studies will need to be performed.
