In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Despite Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) evolution regarding techniques, equipment and experience, the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) post-TAVI remains an important drawback. The electrophysiology testing to stratify the risk or necessity of PPI post-TAVI is endorsed by the up-to-date guidelines and consensus documents and it is a valuable cut-off based method. Part of the answer is maybe hidden in the easy and applicable testing of the atrioventricular conduction system through rapid atrial pacing (RAP) with a common temporary pacemaker lead. This trial is designed to investigate the role and value of RAP after TAVI as a predictor of the necessity of new PPI.
