Conduction system pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy: a systematic review
- Systematic review
Study context
- Population
- Patients with HF and left bundle branch block receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)
- Comparison
- Conduction system pacing vs biventricular pacing for CRT
Pooled result
As reported in the abstract
Electro-mechanical ventricular synchrony, CSP vs BVP
- Early studies suggest conduction system pacing (CSP) may achieve superior electro-mechanical ventricular synchrony vs biventricular pacing (BVP)
- Evidence from large-scale RCTs scarce; procedural complexity and insufficient long-term outcome data prevent CSP replacing BVP as first-line CRT
