Abstract
|
|
|
|
There are currently 3 approaches to achieving left ventricular (LV) pacing. The transvenous approach uses specially designed delivery sheaths and tools for cannulation of the coronary venous circulation. LV pacing lead placement can also be achieved under direct visualization using a cardiac surgical approach. Finally, transvenous LV endocardial pacing via transseptal puncture has been described in the rare circumstance when neither the transvenous epicardial nor surgical option is viable.
