Methods Between April 2017 and September 2019, sixty patients with indications for permanent cardiac pacing and resynchronization therapy in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were divided into the HPBP and RVIP groups, and were analyzed. A ventricular pacing lead was implanted in left ventricular septal sites with left bundle potentials or His potentials in the HPBP group. The lead was placed in right ventricular inflow tract septal sites close to distal His-bundle regions without potentials from the His-purkinje conduction system in the RVIP group. Lead impedance, R wave amplitude, pacing thresholds, QRS duration, left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD), mitral regurgitation area reflux, QTc, T wave directivity, Tp-e and Tp-e/QT ratio were compared between the HPBP and RVIP groups during the procedure and the short-month follow-up. Results No significant differences were found in lead impedance, R wave amplitude, QRS duration, LVEF, LVEDD, mitral regurgitation area reflux, QTc, T wave directivity, Tp-e and Tp-e/QT ratio between the HPBP and RVIP groups. However, the pacing threshold was significantly lower in the HPBP group than in the RVIP group(0.7 ± 0.2 vs. 0.9 ± 0.3 V, P = 0.02). Conclusions The efficacy and electrical parameters of HPBP is comparable with RVIP during the procedure and the short-term follow-up.展开更多

We reported the case of a 71-year-old man who was implanted with a ventricular single-chamber pacemaker for a slow atrial fibrillation with syncope and whose routine transthoracic echocardiography 23 months after implantation displayed a malposition of the pacemaker lead into the Left Ventricle through a patent foramen oval. The patient was asymptomatic. The electrocardiogram showed right bundle branch block QRS-paced morphology with a positive QRS pattern in V1, a median paced QRS axis on the frontal plane at -120°, a Precordial transition on V5. At the lateral Chest X-ray the lead curved backwards to the spine. Given the age of this old patient who already received oral anticoagulant for Atrial Fibrillation and the Lead malposition discovered 23 months after pacemaker’s implantation, we decided to maintain the lead in LV and continue anticoagulation.展开更多
