Key result
Selective site pacing may reduce ventricular dysfunction and atrial tachyarrhythmias, but clinical evaluation is hindered by a lack of uniform site definitions and inadequate placement tools.

Do not adopt selective site pacing routinely without standardized definitions; leaves open benefits over traditional sites in reducing dysfunction and arrhythmias.
Does selective site pacing reduce ventricular dysfunction and atrial tachyarrhythmias compared to traditional pacing sites?
Standardization of definitions and tools for selective site pacing is urgently needed to resolve conflicting data regarding its benefits over traditional apical pacing.
Lieberman et al. (2004) conducted a review in Cardiac pacing. Selective site pacing vs. Traditional right ventricular apical pacing was evaluated. Selective site pacing may reduce ventricular dysfunction and atrial tachyarrhythmias, but clinical evaluation is hindered by a lack of uniform site definitions and inadequate placement tools.
