Why the study?
Whether left bundle branch pacing is superior to traditional right ventricular outflow tract septal pacing in improving cardiac function lacked sufficient evidence.

LBBP was associated with short-term BNP reduction and diastolic gains versus RVOP; leaves open long-term clinical benefit in AV block.
Does left bundle branch pacing improve short-term cardiac function compared to right ventricular outflow tract septal pacing in patients with bradycardia indications?
Left bundle branch pacing improves short-term left ventricular diastolic function and reduces BNP levels compared to right ventricular outflow tract septal pacing in pacemaker-dependent patients.
