Hemodynamic Doppler echocardiographic evaluation of permanent His bundle and biventricular pacing after AV nodal ablation.

ABSTRACT: placing after atrioventricular (AV) nodal ablation for permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) may include cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with either His bundle pacing (HBP) or biventricular pacing (BVP), or conventional single site right ventricular apical pacing (RVAP). To determine the relationship between pacing method and hemodynamic outcome, we used Doppler echocardiographic methods to evaluate left ventricular (LV) hemodynamics after AV nodal ablation and either HBP, BVP, or RVAP.

Method

20 patients were evaluated > 6 months after AV nodal ablation, 10 each with chronic HBP or BVP, and all with RVAP lead. Doppler echocardiography was used to measure 3 parameters indicative of CRT: 1) LV dP/dt, 2) the LV pre-ejection interval, and 3) myocardial performance index, relative to intra-patient RVAP.

Results

Primary endpoint of LV dP/dt on average improved by > 17% with both HBP and BVP, compared to RVAP. HBP but not BVP, had improvement across all three parameters.

Conclusion

HBP provides LV electromechanical synchrony across multiple echo Doppler parameters. Both HBP and BVP were hemodynamically superior to RVAP following AV nodal ablation.

Project description:Cardiac dyssynchrony is the proposed mechanism for pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy, which can be prevented by biventricular pacing. Left bundle branch pacing and His bundle pacing are novel interventions that imitate the natural conduction of the heart with, theoretically, less interventricular dyssynchrony. One of the surrogate markers of interventricular synchrony is QRS duration. Our study aimed to compare the change of QRS duration before and after implantation between types of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs): left bundle branch pacing versus His bundle pacing versus biventricular pacing and conventional right ventricular pacing. A literature search for studies that reported an interval change of QRS duration after CIED implantation was conducted utilizing the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases. All relevant works from database inception through November 2020 were included in this analysis. A random-effects model, Bayesian network meta-analysis was used to analyze QRS duration changes (eg, electrical cardiac synchronization) across different CIED implantations. The mean study sample size, from 14 included studies, was 185 subjects. The search found 707 articles. After exclusions, 14 articles remained with 2,054 patients. The His bundle pacing intervention resulted in the most dramatic decline in QRS duration (mean difference, - 53 ms; 95% CI - 67, - 39), followed by left bundle branch pacing (mean difference, - 46 ms; 95% CI - 60, - 33), and biventricular pacing (mean difference, - 19 ms; 95% CI - 37, - 1.8), when compared to conventional right ventricle apical pacing. When compared between LBBP and HBP, showed no statistically significant wider QRS duration in LBBP with mean different 6.5 ms. (95% CI - 6.7, 21). Our network meta-analysis found that physiologic pacing has the greatest effect on QRS duration after implantation. Thus, HBP and LBBP showed no significant difference between QRS duration after implantation. Physiologic pacing interventions result in improved electrocardiography markers of cardiac synchrony, narrower QRS duration, and might lower electromechanical dyssynchrony.
