His Bundle Pacing in Bradycardia and Heart Failure
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Participants in this study will either have heart failure (HF) and are scheduled to undergo cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P) or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation, or have atrioventricular (AV) block and are scheduled to undergo dual chamber pacemaker implantation. In this study additional heart rhythm measurements will be collected during the implant procedure to better understand how His bundle and/or parahisian pacing (HISP) effects electrical conduction in the hearts of patients with HF or AV block.
The hypothesis is that His bundle or parahisian pacing (HISP) may normalize atrioventricular (AV) conduction with a narrow combination of the Q wave, R wave and S wave (QRS complex) in functional bundle branch block or conduction delay in patients with heart failure (HF).

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Heart Failure Group Patients who have left bundle branch block (LBBB), right bundle branch block (RBBB) or interventricular conduction delay (IVCD) with a QRS duration of greater than 120 ms and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 35% will be enrolled in this arm. The primary care physician will have recommended either CRT-D Implantation or CRT-P Implantation. (This is Standard of Care for this patient population; the procedures will occur even if the patient does not participate in the study.) |
Procedure: CRT-D Implantation
Cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator
Procedure: CRT-P Implantation
Cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker
|
Atrioventricular Block Group Patients who have developed second or third degree atrioventricular block (AV block). The primary care physician will have recommended dual chamber pacemaker implantation. (This is Standard of Care for this patient population; the procedures will occur even if the patient does not participate in the study.) |
Procedure: Dual Chamber Pacemaker Implantation

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- QRS duration as measured by 12-lead ECG [Baseline to 6 months]
The normal duration (interval) of the QRS complex is 0.08 and 0.10 seconds (80 and 100 ms). When the duration is between 0.10 and 0.12 seconds it is intermediate or slightly prolonged. A QRS duration of greater than 0.12 seconds is considered abnormal.
- QRS morphology as measured by 12-lead ECG [Baseline to 6 months]
Normal QRS width is 70-100 ms (a duration of 110 ms is sometimes observed in healthy subjects). The QRS width is useful in determining the origin of each QRS complex (e.g. sinus, atrial, junctional or ventricular).
