Conduction system pacing (CSP) has emerged as a more physiological alternative to right ventricular pacing and is also being used in selected cases for cardiac resynchronization therapy. His bundle pacing was first introduced over two decades ago and its use has risen over the last years with the advent of tools which have facilitated implantation. Left bundle branch area pacing is more recent but its adoption is growing fast due to a wider target area and excellent electrical parameters. Nevertheless, as with any intervention, proper technique is a prerequisite for safe and effective delivery of therapy. This document aims to standardize the procedure and to provide a framework for physicians who wish to start CSP implantation, or who wish to improve their technique. A synopsis is provided in this print edition of EP-Europace. The full document may be consulted online, and a 'Key Messages' App can be downloaded from the EHRA website.
心脏传导系统起搏(CSP)已成为一种比右心室起搏更具生理性的替代方法,并且也正在某些情况下用于心脏再同步治疗。希氏束起搏最初是在二十多年前引入的,随着便于植入的工具的出现,其使用近年来有所增加。左束支区域起搏是最近的,但由于其目标区域更广泛且电参数极佳,其采用率增长迅速。然而,与任何干预措施一样,适当的技术是安全有效提供治疗的前提。本文旨在规范该程序,并为希望开始 CSP 植入或希望提高其技术的医生提供一个框架。本文的概要可在 EP-Europace 的印刷版中查阅。完整的文档可在线查阅,并且可从 EHRA 网站下载“关键信息”应用程序。
