Why the study?
Is permanent His-bundle pacing a feasible alternative to right ventricular apical pacing in patients referred for pacemaker implants?
Is permanent His-bundle pacing a feasible alternative to right ventricular apical pacing in patients referred for pacemaker implants?
Permanent His-bundle pacing is a feasible physiological alternative to right ventricular apical pacing in a subset of patients, with successful implantation achieved in 65% of attempted cases.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Feasibility shown in selected cases; leaves open whether His-bundle pacing improves outcomes versus right ventricular pacing in randomized trials.
Barba-Pichardo et al. (2010) studied this question.
