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
尽管宽QRS波心动过速时,完全性右束支阻滞(complete right bundle branch block,CRBBB)图形及V_1导联上"左兔耳征"图形诊断室速的特异性很高,但临床经验表明,不能迷信所谓的"特异性图形指标",而要利用心电向量图正...尽管宽QRS波心动过速时,完全性右束支阻滞(complete right bundle branch block,CRBBB)图形及V_1导联上"左兔耳征"图形诊断室速的特异性很高,但临床经验表明,不能迷信所谓的"特异性图形指标",而要利用心电向量图正确理解QRS波形态的形成机制以及其他影响波形的合并因素。本文介绍了临床工作中遇到的5个病例,其在CRBBB的基础上,分别合并有重度右心室肥大、侧后壁心肌梗死、A型心室预激及逆钟向转位,在心电图V_1导联上表现出室速时所特有的"左兔耳征"图形;从心电向量图的角度阐述了这种图形的形成原理;经分析认为,在CRBBB时,凡是伴有导致左心室除极向量明显向前偏移的因素,在出现室上速时,心电图就会出现酷似室速的"左兔耳征"的图形表现。这提示我们在鉴别宽QRS波心动过速时,必须重视这种图形,密切结合临床认真鉴别。展开更多
