Why the study?
Left bundle branch area pacing is a novel physiological pacing approach, but its learning curve and procedure and fluoroscopy times compared with right ventricular pacing required evaluation.
Does left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) require similar procedure and fluoroscopy times compared to right ventricular pacing (RVP) in patients with bradycardia?
Population
Consecutive bradycardia patients who underwent LBBAP or RVP
Comparison
LBBAP vs RVP
Design
Prospective observational study

Even at stable experience, LBBAP times remain modestly longer than RVP; supports feasibility but leaves open outcome impact in bradycardia.
Does left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) require similar procedure and fluoroscopy times compared to right ventricular pacing (RVP) in patients with bradycardia?
The procedure and fluoroscopy times for LBBAP decrease significantly with operator experience, approaching those of traditional right ventricular pacing.
