Traditional Pacemakers What Are We Really Comparing?

 HIS-Bundle Pacing has been studied intensively only the last several years  41 patients randomized in His-Sync Trial  RV Pacing has been saving lives since 1958  BiV Pacing has been studied over 20 years in RCTs with over 10,000 patients randomized

Reasons HIS-Bundle Pacing Should be First Line Therapy Reason#1: Longer Procedure Time

Abdelrahman et al. JACC 2018

27% longer procedure

Reason#2: More Fluoroscopy Exposure

Abdelrahman et al. JACC 2018

39% more fluoroscopy

Reason #3: Higher Cost

5076 3830 C304 C315 $437 $232 $495 $768 Standard Pacemaker System: $5582 HIS-Pacing System: $5872 → 5% increase HIS-Pacing System with C304: $6640 → 19% increase Failed His-Pacing System Implant with C304: $7077 → 27% increase

Reason # 4: More Redo Procedures

 HIS-Bundle Pacing

 14/304 (4.2%) patients needed lead revision  6 patients had unacceptably high capture threshold within 30 days  8 patients had unacceptably high capture threshold within 30 days  2/14 patients had no HIS capture at lead revision

 RV Pacing

 2/433 (0.5%) patients needed RV lead revision Abdelrahman et al. JACC 2018

Reason #5: Shorter Battery Life

Reason #6: Unknown Long Term Risks

Vijayaraman et al. JACC 2018

Possible Permanent Damage to HIS-Bundle Reason #7: Observational Comparison Skewed Reason #7: Observational Comparison Skewed
