Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to record the incidence of newly developed or worsening tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR) following the implantation of a pacemaker or defibrillator with a transvenous lead. To collect this data, a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) with 3D imaging of the tricuspid valve (TV) will be performed before and after pacemaker implantation, with particular emphasis on assessing the tricuspid valve. Additionally, routine follow-up visits will be conducted at 6 and 12 months post-intervention, during which a TTE, ECG, NT-proBNP measurement, and pacemaker check will be performed.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria6
- medically indicated for pacemaker, ICD- or CRT implantation
- No previous diagnosis of severe tricuspid regurgitation on enrollment
- No existing transvalvular device (must be first implantation)
- No other diagnosed severe valvular heart disease
- Not previous diagnosis with pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension
- No previous diagnosis of structural disease of the right ventricle (i.e. ACM, cardiac sarcoidosis, carcinoid...)
Exclusion Criteria10
- Patients unable to give consent
- Under the age of 18 years
- Relevant pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension according to decision of the heart-team (sPAP echo \>70 mmHg)
- Severe tricuspid valve regurgitation (Grade 3 or worse) on enrollment
- Patients who have undergone Lead-explantation
- Exisiting valvular heart disease requiring treatment according to the decision of the heart-team. These patients may be enrolled in the study following treatment.
- Previous tricuspid valve surgery

- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Life expectancy \< 12 months
