![]() Across 213 matched pairs, multivariable HR for death/transplant associated with PPMv was 3.8 (95%CI 1.9-7.6 P< 0.001). ![]() Median percent ventricular pacing (Vp) was 90.8% (25th-75th percentile: 4.3%-100%) in the PPMv cohort. Median age at enrollment was 5.3 years (quartiles: 1.5-13.2 years), follow-up 6.9 years (3.4-11.6 years). ![]() Primary outcome was transplantation or death.RESULTS: In total, 236 PPMv subjects and 213 matched controls were identified (22 centers, 9 countries). Controls were matched 1:1 to PPMv subjects by ventricular morphology and sex, identified within center, and enrolled at matched age. Centers contributed baseline and longitudinal data for functionally SV patients with PPMv. ![]() Previous studies have identified that the need for a permanent ventricular pacing system (PPMv) may be associated with additional adverse long-term outcomes.OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to quantify the attributable risk of PPMv in patients with SV, and to identify modifiable risk factors.METHODS: This international study was sponsored by the Pediatric and Congenital Electrophysiology Society. BACKGROUND: Palliation of the single ventricle (SV) circulation is associated with a burden of lifelong complications. ![]()
