Brief summary
The need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPMI) remains one of the most frequent complications after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). This study aimed to develop a novel, two-step risk score to predict PPMI probability after TAVI and to implement it into a user-friendly website. Our risk score addresses the gap in existing data on current prosthesis generations and provides a new and clinically motivated approach to calculating the risk for PPMI.
