INTRODUCTION
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an established treatment for severe aortic stenosis across an expanding risk spectrum. As indications extend to younger and lower-risk patients, post-treatment complications with implications for survival, quality of life, and valve durability requi...

Congenital complete atrioventricular block (CCAVB) requires pacing from early life, yet the long-term burden of pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM), mortality, and device-related complications has not been quantitatively synthesized.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the incidence of PICM, mortality, and device-rela...
