Supports durable coronary sinus LV lead performance in CRT; leaves open need for randomized confirmation of long-term outcomes.
Does left ventricular pacing lead placement via the coronary sinus provide long-term stability and high implant success in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy?
Left ventricular pacing leads placed via the coronary sinus for cardiac resynchronization therapy demonstrate high implant success and long-term stability with low rates of chronic lead failure.
