Emerging Technologies in Cardiac Pacing
Key result
Novel physiologic pacing methods offer alternatives to traditional pacing to prevent dyssynchrony-induced heart failure.
Why the study?
Traditional right ventricular apical pacing can cause heart failure due to dyssynchrony, prompting the development and review of more physiologic and leadless pacing strategies.

Physiologic and leadless pacing vs Traditional right ventricular apical pacing
This review summarizes recent advances in cardiac pacing, including physiologic pacing (His bundle and left bundle branch area) and leadless pacing, as alternatives to traditional methods.
Cite This Study
Vajapey et al. (2023) conducted a review in Bradyarrhythmias. Physiologic and leadless pacing vs. Traditional right ventricular apical pacing was evaluated. Novel physiologic pacing methods, including His bundle, left bundle branch area, and leadless pacing, offer alternatives to traditional pacing to prevent dyssynchrony-induced heart failure.
