Effects on tricuspid regurgitation by different techniques for passing permanent pacemaker leads through the tricuspid valve: a randomized, open-label, superiority clinical trial study protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In recent years, lead-induced tricuspid regurgitation (LITR) has attracted increasing attention. At present, there are two commonly used transvalvular methods for pacing lead wires to enter the right ventricle. The first transvalvular approach involves placing the tip of the pacing lead directly through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, including "direct-crossing" and "drop-down." The second transvalvular approach is to bend the pacing lead so that the reflexed lead body crosses the tricuspid valve and then enters the right ventricle, which is "prolapsing." However, there are no clinical trials to evaluate or compare the effects of the above two different pacing lead transvalvular approaches on tricuspid regurgitation. In this study, we will perform a randomi
