New study tracks heart valve damage from pacemaker leads
NCT ID NCT07342036
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to measure how often a heart valve leak (tricuspid regurgitation) develops or worsens after getting a pacemaker or defibrillator with a lead that crosses the valve. About 200 adults who need their first device will have heart ultrasounds before and after the procedure, plus checkups at 6 and 12 months. The goal is to better understand this complication and improve future care.
