Objective: To compare the paced QRS duration on different sites in age-, gender-, and indication-matched patients implanted with Micra leadless pacemakers and conventional transvenous pacemakers (TV-PM).

Method: A total of 82 patients from Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University, were enrolled, including two groups of 41 patients matched according to gender, age, and pacemaker indications, who underwent Micra and TV-PM implantations, respectively. The baseline data of the patients, the pacing site described using three- and nine-partition methods, and the paced QRS duration on 12-lead electrocardiogram were then analyzed.

Introduction: Permanent implantation of a DF-4 implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) lead in the left bundle branch area (LBBA-ICD) is the next paradigm in amalgamating cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and defibrillation. We systematically investigated feasibility/success rate, procedural caveats, and complications associated with a permanent DF-4 LBBA ICD implant and pertinent data at short-term follow-up.

Methods: We prospectively attempted implantation of 7 Fr Durata (Abbott, Chicago, IL, USA) single coil DF-4 ICD lead at the LBBA using a fixed-curve non-deflectable CPS locator delivery sheath.

Unlabelled: Corrected transposition of the great arteries (c-TGA) is a congenital abnormality characterized by atrioventricular (AV) and ventriculoarterial discordance, associated with early and late-onset conduction disturbances. We report the case of a c-TGA patient affected by congenital complete AV block, with right ventricular lead malfunction with prolonged dwell time and two abandoned leads. He underwent leadless VDD pacemaker implantation at an unusual site (i.

Objective: To evaluate systematically the feasibility and effectiveness of His Bundle Pacing (HBP) for cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, EMbase, WOS, Cochrane Library, Medline, and SinoMed for studies published between December 2003 and December 2023. Primary clinical outcomes included implantation success, QRS wave duration, pacing threshold, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function class, and complications.

Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) can effectively enhance cardiac contraction by engaging the conduction system. LBBAP, compared with right ventricular apex pacing, can reduce QRS duration and enhance left ventricular function. Consequently, LBBAP has been proposed as a viable alternative to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
