ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
While right ventricular pacing (RVP) is the conventional temporary pacing modality used for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), this approach possesses inherent risks and procedural challenges. We aim to assess and compare the safety and efficacy of left ventricular pacing (LVP) and RVP during TAVR and balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV).METHODS:
Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in four databases from inception to December 15th, 2023. We included observational studies and clinical trials comparing LVP with RVP during TAVR and BAV procedures. Primary outcomes included short-term mortality, mortality due to cardiac tamponade, and procedural complications including bleeding, vascular complications, and cardiac tamponade. Secondary outcomes comprised procedure duration and length of hospital stay.RESULTS:
Five studies involving 830 patients with RVP and 1577 with LVP were included. Short-term mortality was significantly higher in the RVP group (RR 2.32, 95% CI [1.37-3.93], P = .002), as was the incidence of cardiac tamponade (RR 2.19, 95% CI [1.11-4.32], P = .02). LVP demonstrated shorter hospital stays (MD = 1.34 d, 95% CI [0.90, 1.78], P < .001) and reduced procedure duration (MD = 7.75 min, 95% CI [5.08, 10.41], P < .00001) compared to RVP. New pacemaker implantation was higher in the RVP group (RR 2.23, 95% CI [1.14, 4.39], P = .02).CONCLUSION:
LVP during TAVR and BAV emerges a safer alternative to RVP, offering reduced mortality, hospital stays, and procedure durations.
