Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE
His bundle pacing (HBP) could replace failed biventricular pacing (BVP) in guidelines (IIa Indication), but the high capture thresholds and backup lead pacing requirements limit its development. We assessed the efficacy and safety of HBP combined with atrioventricular node ablation (AVNA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) and compared with BVP and left bundle branch pacing (LBBP).
METHODS
We reviewed PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), New York Heart Association (NYHA) score, QRS duration (QRSd), and pacing threshold.
RESULTS
Thirteen studies included 1115 patients (639 with HBP, 338 with BVP, and 221 with LBBP). Compared with baseline, HBP improved LVEF (mean difference [MD]: 9.24 [6.10, 12.37]; p < 0.01), reduced NYHA score (MD: -1.12 [-1.34, -0.91]; p < 0.01), increased QRSd (MD: 10.08 [4.45, 15.70]; p < 0.01), and rose pacing threshold (MD: 0.16 [0.05, 0.26]; p < 0.01). HBP had comparable efficacy to BVP and LBBP and lower QRSd (p < 0.05). HBP had a lower success rate (85.97%) and more complications (16.1%).
CONCLUSION
HBP combined with AVNA is effective for AF, despite having a lower success rate and more complications. Further trials are required to determine whether HBP is superior to BVP and LBBP.
期刊介绍:
The journal serves the device research community by providing a comprehensive body of high-quality information from leading experts, all subject to rigorous peer review. The Expert Review format is specially structured to optimize the value of the information to reader. Comprehensive coverage by each author in a key area of research or clinical practice is augmented by the following sections:
Expert commentary - a personal view on the most effective or promising strategies
Five-year view - a clear perspective of future prospects within a realistic timescale
Key issues - an executive summary cutting to the author''s most critical points
In addition to the Review program, each issue also features Medical Device Profiles - objective assessments of specific devices in development or clinical use to help inform clinical practice. There are also Perspectives - overviews highlighting areas of current debate and controversy, together with reports from the conference scene and invited Editorials.
