Outcomes and Safety of Various Conduction System Pacing Methods

"Different active fixation leads and the dedicated delivery sheaths are introduced via standard transvenous approach under fluoroscopic guidance. His bundle potential mapping is performed in a unipolar setting with the use of the electrophysiological system for His bundle pacing. After localizing the His bundle potential, the pacing is attempted before the lead fixation to confirm HB capture. The lead is then screwed into position. Acute HBP threshold ≤ 2.5V at 1ms is considered acceptable. On the other hand, the initial site for LBBP is approximately 1-1.5 cm distal to the HBP lead position in the RV septum along the line between the HBP site and RV apex in the right anterior oblique (30°) fluoroscopic view. Bachmann bundle pacing (upper atrial septum) will be performed with the J-stylet modification technique or with specialized catheter method using the SelectSecure active fixation lead.~Stepwise approach for conduction pacing will also be tested."
