fib, a flutter, junctional rhythm), was associated with a higher incidence of PPM when compared to sinus rhythm with marginal significance (22.8% vs 13.6%; P = 0.055).

After model adjustment for baseline risk factors, the OR remained significant for type II DM (aOR: 2.16; CI: 1.18-3.94; P = 0.012), QRS > 120 (aOR: 2.18; CI: 1.02-4.66; P = 0.045) and marginally significant for supraventricular arrhythmias (aOR: 1.82; CI: 0.97-3.42; P = 0.062).
Among the traditional risk factors for PPM implantation, our study found that the odds of pacemaker placement in patients with prior RBBB was 3.73 (95%CI: 1.92-7.26; P < 0.001) times those without prior RBBB in the unadjusted model which tended towards significance following multivariate analysis (aOR: 2.15; 95%CI: 0.91-5.09; P = 0.081).
