Pacemaker lead placement: which guidance method works best?
NCT ID NCT07110922
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study compares two FDA-approved methods for placing a pacemaker lead in the Bachmann bundle, a part of the heart. One method uses only contrast dye and X-ray (angiography), while the other adds an electrocardiogram (ECG). Researchers will enroll 50 adults who already need a pacemaker or defibrillator to see which method works better and takes less time.
