Insights
Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) feasibility and safety are unknown in patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSD). This study investigates LBBAP in this specific patient population, addressing a gap in current knowledge for cardiac pacing.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Electrophysiology
- Cardiac Pacing
Background:
- The His bundle is crucial for cardiac electrical conduction, branching into left and right bundle branches within the interventricular septum.
- Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is an advanced pacing technique.
- The safety and feasibility of LBBAP in patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSD) remain uninvestigated.
Abstract:
His bundle typically passes through the central fibrous body of the atrioventricular node and then enters the membranous portion of the interventricular septum, where it branches into the left and right bundle branches. The feasibility and safety of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) in patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defect (pmVSD) have not been reported.
