People with heart block, a type of heart rhythm disorder, had lower incidences of death, hospitalization for heart failure and pacing-induced cardiomyopathy when the pacemaker technique implemented was left bundle branch pacing rather than right ventricular pacing, according to independent, preliminary, late-breaking science presented Sunday at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions in Chicago.
Novel Pacemaker Technique Reduces Cardiac Events in Heart Block Patients
A novel pacemaker technique, left bundle branch pacing, has shown to reduce cardiac events in patients with heart block compared to traditional right ventricular pacing. This research was presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions in Chicago. The findings could have implications for improving cardiac care in Iran, where heart disease is a significant health issue.
