Core Tip Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces heart failure (HF) hospitalization and all-cause mortality in patients of HF with reduced ejection fraction with left bundle branch (LBB) block (LBBB). However approximately 30%–40% of patients do not respond to Biventricular pacing (BVP)-CRT. Some recent studies have shown that LBB pacing (LBBP) provides an alternative for CRT. In the current study, Yasmin et al demonstrate that LBBP-CRT is better than conventional BVP-CRT in terms of QRS duration reduction as well as left ventricular ejection fraction improvement with consistent lower pacing thresholds on follow-up. The present study adds to a body of emerging encouraging data for LBBB-CRT in the past few years. With evolving technological modification and operator experience, the day might not be far when LBBB-CRT becomes the convention rather than exception.
