Greater RV-stimulation rates post-TAVI correlate with increased 1-year MACE in patients with new PPM post-TAVI or in those with existing PPM but low RV-stimulation rates pre-TAVI. A shallower valve implantation depth reduces the risk of greater RV-stimulation rates post-TAVI, correlating with improved patient outcomes. These data highlight the importance of a meticulous implant technique even in TAVI recipients with pre-existing PPMs.
