His Purkinje Conduction System Pacing – Why?
- Most physiological form of ventricular pacing
- Conduction occurs through native His-Purkinje system
- No pacing induced dyssynchrony
- Lead tip and body potentially within the right atrium
– Prevents lead related issues such as tricuspid regurgitation
- Both AV and VV synchrony can be achieved at the same time
- Has significant clinical advantage over traditional RV pacing or even
biventricular pacing
