Imaging-Based Localization of His Bundle Pacing Electrodes: Results From the Prospective IMAGE-HBP Study

This study sought to evaluate the correlation between His bundle (HB) pacing (HBP) implantation characteristics, lead-tip location, and association of intraprocedural His recordings with approximated HB anatomic landmarks using computed tomography (CT) imaging. HBP continues to grow in clinical prac...

Zusammenfassung:This study sought to evaluate the correlation between His bundle (HB) pacing (HBP) implantation characteristics, lead-tip location, and association of intraprocedural His recordings with approximated HB anatomic landmarks using computed tomography (CT) imaging. HBP continues to grow in clinical practice due to offering true physiological pacing. However, a clear understanding of HB anatomy and the lead-tip location's influence on pacing characteristics is lacking. The IMAGE-HBP study (Imaging Study of Lead Implant for His Bundle Pacing) was a prospective, multicenter study designed to assess implantation characteristics of the SelectSecure Model 3830 lead placed at the HB, evaluate protocol-specified HBP success (His recording present on electrogram and HBP threshold ≤2.5 V at 1 ms), and correlation between lead-tip location by CT imaging and HBP characteristics as well as lead-related complications through 12 months. Sixty-nine patients underwent a lead implantation attempt at the HB. Of these, 61 patients (88%) had a lead successfully implanted at the HB, and 52 patients (75%) met the pre-specified definition of successful HBP. In 51 patients with CT imaging, 11 leads (22%) were placed in the atrial aspect of the HB region (36% selective HBP), and 40 leads (78%) were placed in the ventricular aspect (28% selective HBP). Four of the 51 patients had P-wave oversensing, all with leads in the atrium. Freedom from lead-related complication at 12 months was 93%. Successful HBP could be achieved at lead-tip locations in the atrium or ventricle but is preferable in the ventricle to eliminate risk of oversensing. The IMAGE-HBP study offers better insight into approximated HB anatomic landmarks, lead-tip location, and correlation with pacing characteristics.
