Outcomes of His-bundle pacing upgrade after long-term right ventricular pacing and/or pacing-induced cardiomyopathy: Insights into disease progression
His-bundle pacing (HBP) is a physiological alternative to right ventricular pacing (RVP). The outcomes of HBP in patients with longstanding atrioventricular block (AVB) and RVP are unknown The purpose of this study was to retrospectively assess the feasibility of HBP in patients with chronic RVP and...

Zusammenfassung: | His-bundle pacing (HBP) is a physiological alternative to right ventricular pacing (RVP). The outcomes of HBP in patients with longstanding atrioventricular block (AVB) and RVP are unknown
The purpose of this study was to retrospectively assess the feasibility of HBP in patients with chronic RVP and longstanding AVB and to evaluate its efficacy in reversing the adverse remodeling induced by RVP.
HBP was attempted in patients with longstanding AVB and chronic RVP and/or pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) in need for resynchronization therapy. The site of conduction block and feasibility of HBP was documented. Electrocardiographic and echocardiographic assessments at baseline and follow-up were recorded.
HBP was successful in 79 of 85 patients (93%) with RVP for 77.6 ± 74.8 months (range 2–540 months). AV nodal block was present in 59 and infranodal block in 26. QRS duration increased from 123 ± 31 ms at baseline to 177 ± 17 ms (P |
