Arrhythmic burden in patients with new-onset persistent left bundle branch block after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: 2-year results of the MARE study

ConclusionPatients with new-onset LBBB post-TAVR exhibited a very high burden of arrhythmic events within the 2  years post-procedure. While new tachyarrhythmic events were homogeneously distributed over time, the vast majority of new HAVB episodes leading to PPM implantation occurred early after the procedure. These results should help to guide the management of this challenging group of patients. (clinica ltrials.gov: NCT02153307)
