Mashup Score: 46Failure of Left Bundle Branch Pacing Due to Iterative Septal Perforation: A Word of Caution for Thin Septum and Highly Dilated Cardiomyopathy - 4 month(s) ago
A 67-year-old man, with a history of alcoholic dilated cardiomyopathy, severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and complete left bundle branch (LBB) block experienced syncope leading to a CRT-ICD implant. Following the failure of LV lead implantation due to unfavorable venous anatomy, a lead implantation for LBB pacing (LBBP) was achieved validating the usual electrophysiological criteria (Figure 1A). Despite unchanged pacing parameters before discharge, no capture was observed from the LBBP lead during the 2-week check-up visit.

Though several groups were involved in the invention of external defibrillation, only one, led by Michel Mirowski at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, was responsible for the creation of the implantable defibrillator. Mirowski, a Jew, was born and raised in Warsaw. In 1939, as an adolescent, he left his family and fled his country after the…

Mashup Score: 10Conduction System Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy - 5 month(s) ago
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) via biventricular pacing (BiVP-CRT) is considered a mainstay treatment for symptomatic heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction and wide QRS. However, up to one-third of patients receiving BiVP-CRT are considered non-responders to the therapy. Multiple strategies have been proposed to maximize the percentage of CRT responders including two new physiological pacing modalities that have emerged in recent years: His bundle pacing (HBP) and left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP). Both pacing techniques aim at restoring the normal electrical activation of the ventricles through the native conduction system in opposition to the cell-to-cell activation of conventional right ventricular myocardial pacing. Conduction system pacing (CSP), including both HBP and LBBAP, appears to be a promising pacing modality for delivering CRT and has proven to be safe and feasible in this particular setting. This article will review the current state of the
