Key result
Transseptal left ventricular lead implantation through a left subclavian access was successfully achieved using a system including a guiding catheter, puncture screw catheter, and puncture stylet.
Why the study?
Does transseptal LV lead implantation through a left subclavian access allow successful lead placement when the epicardial approach is not feasible?

Does transseptal LV lead implantation through a left subclavian access allow successful lead placement when the epicardial approach is not feasible?
Transseptal LV lead implantation via a left subclavian approach is a feasible alternative when traditional epicardial placement fails.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May offer alternative when epicardial placement fails; leaves open safety, durability, and generalizability.
Calvo et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Need for left ventricular lead placement. Transseptal left ventricular lead implantation via left subclavian access was evaluated on Successful implantation. Transseptal left ventricular lead implantation through a left subclavian access was successfully achieved using a system including a guiding catheter, puncture screw catheter, and puncture stylet.
