Permanent HIS bundle Pacing Feasibility in Routine Clinical Practice: Experience from an Indian Center

There is a paucity of experience regarding His bundle pacing (HBP) at laboratories initially attempting the procedure, especially in the Indian scenario. Patient who underwent HBP were selected for pacing therapy or in lieu of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) at a single center. Among 22 patients attempted, 19 patients underwent successful implant, achieving selective HBP in 14 patients. There was a significant improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (49.3 ± 9.3 vs. 36.7 ± 9.2) in the LV dysfunction subgroup (n = 6). Over a follow-up of 15 ± 6.5 months, thresholds were stable in all except one patient, and there was no requirement of lead revision. In summary, we found that HBP is a feasible option for achieving physiological pacing.
