His bundle pacing prevents pacing-induced heart failure vs RVAP by preserving normal ventricular activation.
His Bundle pacing provides physiological pacing with conduction and contraction similar to normal, offering an alternative to traditional right ventricular apical pacing.
History of pacing has evolved from the primitive state of temporary transvenous pacing by large fixed machine to leadless modern technology. The pacing site has also been changed from traditional right ventricular apex to various other sites. The concept behind such experient was due to several complications in the long term from traditional Right Ventricular Apical Pacing (RVAP). The His Bundle pacing results in conduction and contraction similar to and and more often called physiological pacing. This mini review describes short history of evolution of concept of His Bundle pacing and its technical aspects of successful implantation.

Sumitava Mukherjee (2018) conducted a review in Pacing indications. His Bundle Pacing vs. Right Ventricular Apical Pacing was evaluated. His bundle pacing provides a physiological alternative to traditional right ventricular apical pacing by preserving normal ventricular activation and preventing pacing-induced heart failure.
