Overview
Conduction System Pacing: Recent Advances and Clinical Applications
Conduction system pacing (CSP) has significantly evolved in recent years, expanding from His bundle pacing to include left bundle branch pacing and left ventricular septal pacing. This webinar, led by Dr Pugazhendhi Vijayaraman, a renowned expert in the field, features presentations from esteemed faculty, Prof Marek Jastrzębski and Dr Oscar Cano. The session aims to provide an in-depth overview of the latest advancements in CSP, with a particular focus on the current role of His bundle pacing, new insights gained from the use of stylet-driven leads, and guidance on outpatient follow-up and troubleshooting for patients undergoing CSP.
In addition to exploring the application of CSP in bradycardia, this webinar will present emerging data on its use in patients with heart failure who require cardiac resynchronization therapy, particularly those with left bundle branch block or mixed conduction disease.
For further reading on conduction system pacing, explore the special focus issue curated by our moderator, Dr Pugazhendi Vijayaraman in AER Journal.
Key Learning Objectives

- To evaluate therapeutic options for left bundle branch block associated cardiomyopathy
- To analyze the role of conduction system pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy and in patients with congenital heart disease
- To recognize and troubleshoot complications associated with conduction system pacing during follow-up
Target Audience
- Cardiologists with device implantations/follow-up experience
- Cardiac Electrophysiologists
- Advanced practitioners
- Physiologists
- Device Specialists
