May offer bailout when standard sites fail; leaves open long-term threshold stability and applicability.
Can permanent ventricular pacing be achieved via the great cardiac vein when standard pacing sites fail?
The great cardiac vein can serve as an alternative transvenous route for permanent ventricular pacing when standard sites are unavailable, though it may result in elevated stimulation thresholds.
Strathmore et al. (1994) studied this question.
