Zusammenfassung: | Tricuspid regurgitation is a widely recognised phenomenon in patients with transvenous cardiac rhythm management (CRM) devices. If tricuspid valve repair or replacement is to be considered, what to do with the existing CRM system requires scrutiny with multidisciplinary input.

Key considerations in management and alternative CRM options are discussed. |
