Key result
Intermittent paired ventricular pacing resulted in retrograde activation of the His bundle and atria in 100% of patients (5/5).
Why the study?

Supports retrograde His-atrial activation via paired pacing in humans; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Observational (n=5)
Does intermittent paired ventricular pacing induce retrograde activation of the His bundle and atria in human subjects?
Intermittent paired ventricular pacing demonstrates retrograde activation of the His bundle and atria, with 1 mm bipolar leads enhancing the identification of His deflections.
Castillo et al. (1970) conducted an observational in Patients undergoing intermittent paired ventricular pacing (n=5). Intermittent paired ventricular pacing was evaluated on Retrograde activation of the His bundle and of the atria. Intermittent paired ventricular pacing resulted in retrograde activation of the His bundle and atria in 100% of patients (5/5).
