Abstract:Background:The most frequent mechanism of lead-related tricuspid regurgitation (LRTR), which occurs in 7.2% to 44.7% of patients implanted with a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED), is leaflet impingement or the restriction of its movement by a ventricular lead. It is unclear if the position of the lead tip -in the right ventricular apex (RVA) or other location (non-RVA) -has any influence on the development of LRTR. The study aimed to determine the impact of the CIED lead tip position on the develop… Show more
