Supports S-shaped LV lead stability in CRT; leaves open comparative efficacy versus standard leads in RCTs.
Does a preshaped S-shaped LV lead provide stable electrical parameters and safety over 2 years in patients with heart failure and bundle branch block undergoing CRT?
A preshaped S-shaped LV lead for CRT demonstrates high implantation success, safety, and stable long-term electrical performance over 2 years.
Schuchert et al. (2004) studied this question.
