This report provides a technical tip for overcoming anatomic variability when positioning pacemaker electrodes in sharply angulated coronary sinus branches during CRT.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May aid electrode positioning in difficult coronary sinus anatomy during CRT; case report leaves open need for validation.
The anatomic variability of the cardiac veins limits the feasibility of cardiac resynchronization therapy. This report describes another way to position the pacemaker electrode in sharply angulated coronary sinus branches. (J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, Vol. 14, pp. 415‐416, April 2003)
