Left Bundle Branch Pacing Versus Right Ventricular Pacing in Patients With Atrioventricular Block

February 9, 2023 updated by: Zhongxiu Chen, West China Hospital

Left Bundle Branch Pacing Versus Right Ventricular Pacing in Patients With Atrioventricular Block: an Observational Cohort Study

Although emerging evidence demonstrated that left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) is a promising alternative for patients with either a bradycardia or a heart failure pacing indication. However, a direct comparison of the safety, efficacy and LV systolic synchrony between LBBP and RVP regimens was rare. In this study, the investigators aim to conduct a comparison of the safety and effectiveness performance between these two pacing methods for patients with atrioventricular block (AVB). The investigators focused on AVB patients undergoing permanent pacemaker implantations from the 1st of January 2018 to the 18th of November 2021 at West China Hospital.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Right ventricular pacing (RVP) is the standard treatment for patients with continuous ventricular pacing needs. However, clinical studies have shown that RVP can cause electrical and mechanical dyssynchrony of the left ventricle and increase the risks of cardiac insufficiency, atrial fibrillation (AF) and death.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
high-grade AVB patients undergoing permanent pacemaker implantations
After recording the His potential, the 3830-69 lead (Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, MN USA) was sent 1-2 cm forward and downward to find the insertion point of the right side of intra-ventricular septum combined with the pre-rotation impedance and ECG changes. Ultimately, the tip was perpendicularly straightforward posited against the septum to the left septal side .
Right ventricular pacing (RVP) is the standard treatment for patients with continuous ventricular pacing needs.
