Better devices and changes in implant depth have likely led to fewer LBBBs over time, but the issue needs continued attention ...

PARIS, France—Longer-term follow-up data should “partially reassure” physicians concerned about the development of new-onset persistent left bundle branch block (LBBB) after TAVR for the treatment of ...

Certain groups of heart failure patients may see improved heart function with cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRT-D) if traditional implantable cardioverter defibrillator ...

SAN FRANCISCO -- Better indicators of high-grade atrioventricular (AV) conduction system abnormalities following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) could be gleaned from an intraprocedural ...

LBBB is linked to electrical abnormalities, causing inefficient heart pumping, dilation, and systolic dysfunction. The study found LBBB associated with increased heart failure risk, surpassing other ...

Impulses, or electrical signals, travel through both the left and right chambers of your heart to make it pump. But if the pathway is blocked, the impulses may move slower than normal or irregularly.

Conduction abnormalities, such as left bundle branch block (LBBB), commonly occur after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Such complications might impair the benefits of TAVI, but do not ...
