Clinical Trial: OPTImizing Lead Placement in Patients Requiring Pacemaker After Cardiac Surgery

U.S., Sept. 1 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07795541) titled 'OPTImizing Lead Placement in Patients Requiring Pacemaker After Cardiac Surgery' on Aug. 26.

Brief Summary: Conventional right ventricular pacing has been associated with ventricular dyssynchrony and an increased risk of pacing-induced cardiomyopathy, which may lead to worse clinical outcomes. To lessen the burden of pacing-induced cardiomyopathy, the adoption of conduction system pacing has increased in recent years. In patients with normal cardiac function, measured as left ventricular ejection fraction, the superiority of conduction system pacing is less clear. As a result, both pacing strategies remain in widespread clinical use...
