The present study investigated the incidence and predictors of permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation for late atrioventricular block (AVB) in patients with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) who received ablation. The data from 3,442 patients with AVNRT who received ablation were analyzed. Those who developed late AVB (>1?month after ablation) and received a PPM were identified. The incidence of PPM implantation in 1,148 matched patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and in the whole population of Taiwan were compared. Of the patients with AVNRT receiving ablation (mean follow-up duration 128.3 ¡À 62.5 months), 15 (0.4 % ) received PPM implantation for late AVB (mean interval after catheter ablation 95.4 ¡À 55.0 months). Only age (odds ratio 1.05, p?= 0.02) and transient AVB (odds ratio 8.55, p?= 0.01) during the procedure were independently associated with PPM implantation for late AVB. The patients with AVNRT had a greater incidence of PPM implantation due to late AVB compared to the matched patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. The annual incidence of PPM implantation for AVB was also greater in the patients with AVNRT than in the general population. In conclusion, the incidence of PPM implantation for late AVB in?patients with AVNRT who received catheter ablation was low but still greater than that?in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and the general population in Taiwan.
