Incidence and Predictors of High-Grade AV Block in Patients With Initially Unchanged Electrocardiogram After TAVR
Despite no immediate change in post-TAVR ECG, 17.8% of patients with preexisting RBBB developed HAVB, mostly within 24 hours. This emphasizes the need for inpatient monitoring for at least 24 hours in this group. Conversely, in patients with isolated PR >240 milliseconds and LBBB, the incidence of HAVB was relatively low (5%), with the majority occurring after 24 hours. Potentially, same-day discharge with ambulatory ECG monitoring may be suitable for these patients.
