Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to investigate the real-world implantation rates of various cardiac pacing devices in patients with advanced atrioventricular block and left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 35% who are expected to require ventricular pacing, to evaluate the reasons for device selection and differences in clinical outcomes, and to assess the impact of pacing site and pacing mode on cardiac function and infection risk.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Implantation rate of each pacing device type

Key secondary outcomes

Key secondary outcomes in each group (LVEF 36-50% and LVEF >50%):

(1) NT-proBNP and BNP
(2) Echocardiographic parameters (LVEF and LVESV [left ventricular end-systolic volume])
(3) All-cause mortality
(4) Cardiovascular events (stroke/transient ischemic attack, systemic embolism, ischemic heart disease, cardiovascular death, hospitalization for heart failure, and other cardiovascular events requiring hospitalization)
(5) Myocardial infarction and unstable angina
(6) Hospitalization for heart failure and other cardiovascular events requiring hospitalization
(7) Major bleeding (according to ISTH criteria)
(8) Clinically relevant bleeding
(9) Major bleeding or clinically relevant bleeding
(10) Occurrence of VT (ventricular tachycardia) / VF (ventricular fibrillation) and sudden death
(11) Cardiovascular death
(12) Other causes of death
(13) Device-related complications
