Trying NOT to re-invent the wheel.
My Physicians are implanting many LBBAP leads.
I am curious if anyone would be willing to share a protocol that they have developed for follow up of these Conduction Site/LBBB pacing.
I personally believe they need a post op 12 lead with LBBB pacing to look at the complexes and make sure that we are giving the patients the best that we can. Look for changes in 12 lead at follow up, perhaps they need annual 12 lead.
Also, ? if the have a narrow QRS (pre-pacemaker) and were implanted for possibly SSS, do you actually need to pace or extend AVD not to pace.
I have read articles from different manufacturers, however, Since this is a fairly new technology, any input, articles, protocols or suggestions are appreciated. The more knowledge that better.
Sincere Thanks,
