Clinical impact of pacemaker implantation. A, all‐cause death, (B) cardiac death, (C) all stroke, and (D) hospitalization for valve‐related symptoms/worsening congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class III/IV) in patients with a prior pacemaker at baseline (red), patients who did not receive a pacemaker (purple), and patients who received a pacemaker within 30 days of the index procedure (green). Event rates between 31 and 365 days were calculated with Kaplan–Meier methods. Error bars indicate standard error. AVB indicates atrioventricular block
