BackgroundThere are limited data available on the development of arrhythmias in patients at risk of high-degree atrioventricular block (HAVB) or complete heart block (CHB) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the incidence and evolution of arrhythmias by monitoring patients at risk of HAVB or CHB after TAVR using smartwatches. MethodsWe analyzed 188 consecutive patients in the prospective SMART TAVR (smartwatch-facilitated early discharge in patients undergoing TAVR) trial. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the risk of HAVB or CHB. Patients were required to trigger a single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording and send it to the Heart Health App via their smartphone. Physicians in the central ECG core lab would then analyze the ECG. The incidence and timing of arrhythmias and pacemaker implantation within a 30-day follow-up were compared. All arrhythmic events were adjudicated in a central ECG core lab. ResultsThe mean age of the patients was 73.1 (SD 7.3) years, of whom 105 (55.9%) were men. The mean discharge day after TAVR was 2.0 (SD 1.8) days. There were no statistically significant changes in the evolution of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, Mobitz I, Mobitz II, and third-degree atrial ventricular block over time in the first month after TAVR. The incidence of the left bundle branch block (LBBB) increased in the first week and decreased in the subsequent 3 weeks significantly (P |
