His-bundle Pacing vs. Right Ventricular Apical Pacing in Patients With Reduced Ejection Fraction

NCT04529577 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study compares standard right ventricle apical pacing with so called His-bundle pacing, for patients with slightly or moderately reduced ejection fraction and atrioventricular block requiring pacemaker therapy. The primary outcome is left ventricular ejection fraction measured after 6 months.

Conditions

  • His Bundle Pacing
  • Heart Failure, Systolic

Interventions

DEVICE

His-bundle pacing

A standard pacing electrode (Medtronic 4076) will be placed in RV apex (or RV septum as a secondary option) and in the right atrial appendage (if indicated). A dedicated His-bundle pacemaker electrode (Medtronic 3830) will be placed in the region of His bundle, using a dedicated introducer sheath (Medtronic C304 or Medtronic C315). His-bundle potentials will be identified and His-bundle capture (non-selective or selective) will be ascertained using an electrophysiology recording system. Device programming will focus on providing physiological atrioventricular delay and safety RV pacing as backup.
