ElectrocardioGraphic Imaging During Left bUndle Branch Implant to valiDate Ecg Criteria (GUIDE)

March 30, 2026 updated by: Josep Lluis Mont Girbau, Hospital Clinic of Barcelona
The goal is to validate the resynchronization criteria with a non-invasive technique, during the LBBP implant. Non-invasive real-time ventricular activation maps will be created and analyzed before, during, and after the implantation of the left bundle branch lead, including right septal pacing, mid and deep septal pacing and pacing when reaching the left bundle branch according to the published standard LBBP criteria. Using these maps, the investigators will quantify activation times and evaluate changes in the ventricular sequence during implantation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Left ventricular resynchronization assessed by ECGI
Time Frame: During procedure
Resynchronization assesed by non-invasive ECGI by the Left Ventricle Activation Time reduction and the septal activation ventricular pattern once reaching the LBBP according to the published ECG criteria.
During procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
VEU
Time Frame: During procedure
Ventricular Electrical Uncoupling computed as the difference between the mean activation time of the left and the right ventricle
During procedure
LVDI
Time Frame: During procedure
Left Ventricle Dyssinchrony Index computed as the standard deviation of individual activations recorded from the left ventricle.
During procedure
Histogram Overlap
Time Frame: During procedure
Overlapping of the right ventricle and left ventricle activation times histogram distributions as a parameter to assess the dyssinchrony between ventricles.
During procedure
LVAT
Time Frame: During procedure
Left Ventricular Activation Time computed as the difference between the earliest and the latest actvation of the left ventricle
During procedure
Isochronal Crowding
Time Frame: During procedure
Number of Isochrones presented in the left ventricular activation map to assess the homogeneity of the activation
During procedure
