New pacemaker technique aims to cut heart failure risk
NCT ID NCT04730921
Summary
This study tested if placing a pacemaker lead in a new area of the heart (left bundle branch area) is better than the traditional placement (right ventricle) for people with a specific heart rhythm problem (AV block). Researchers wanted to see if the new method could better prevent heart failure, death, or the need for more surgery. Nearly 500 participants were randomly assigned to receive one of the two pacing methods and followed for at least two years.
