Brief Summary

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

High burden right ventricular (RV) pacing has been shown to increase cardiovascular mortality, incidence of heart failure (HF), worsen left ventricular (LV) function and accelerate the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). High percentage ventricular pacing and wider paced QRS in the setting of normal baseline LV ejection fractions have consistently been shown to be independent risk factors for pacing-induced cardiomyopathy. Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) has emerged as a potential alternative pacing mechanism that may avoid LV dyssynchrony and pacing-induced LV dysfunction by mimicking native electrical conduction.

Detailed Description

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

We hypothesize that in patients with high degree AV block with anticipated ventricular pacing \>90%, and an EF \>35% patients undergoing LBBP will demonstrate a significantly lower number of the primary composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, heart failure events, and change in LVESVi as compared to standard RV pacing. Echos will be performed at baseline, 12, 24, and 36 months. NTproBNPs are performed at baseline and follow-up. There will be a core echo lab, and blinded adjudication of ECGs and events.
