Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and clinical outcomes after different pacing approaches of conduction system pacing in a prospective registry.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In comparison with right ventricular pacing-induced electromechanical dyssynchrony, conduction system pacing is providing physiological pacing via His-Purkinje activation. Current approaches include His bundle (HBP), left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), and Bachmann bundle pacing. In addition, HBP and LBBAP enable correction of underlying proximal bundle branch block, consequently improving the ventricular activation time and narrowing the QRS. Furthermore, atrial activation can be improved with direct Bachmann bundle stimulation. However, the data regarding long-term performance and safety of these physiological approaches in various clinical scenarios is scarce.

With this registry, the investigators would like to obtain real-world data regarding the feasibility and safety of this physiological pacing approaches in various pacing indications and their implementation in routine clinical practice.

Implant success rate, specific implant characteristics, procedural complications, electrical parameters and clinical outcomes will be analyzed at implantation, 1-3 months after inclusion and every 6 months thereafter. Minimal follow-up will be 2 years.

His bundle pacing implantation, Left bundle branch area pacing implantation, Bachmann bundle pacing

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.
