treatment purpose

Patients indicated for newly permanent pacemaker implantation due to advanced atrioventricular block (second and third degree).
Patients with complicated heart failure and moderately decreased left ventricular ejection function (35-50%) before implantation.
High frequency of ventricular pacing with >40% after implantation.

Patients indicated for defibrillator lead implantation
Patients who are not required for permanent pacemaker implantation owing to temporal atrioventricular block
Anatomical difficulty of transvenous lead implantation
Upgrading cases from prior pacemaker devices or re-implantation cases
Inability to obtain informed consent from a patient

No limit

Both

Atrioventricular block, chronic heart failure

Patients are randomly assigned to therapeutic groups of LBBBAP pacing and CRT pacing. All patients are examined by echocardiography, blood examination test, and electrocardiogram six months after the implantation, and outcomes are compared between the two groups. Adverse events and prognoses are assessed for two years after the implantation.

Atrioventricular block, chronic heart failure

An improvement of LVEF

An improvement of LVEF from before to after 6 months

An improvement of BNP levels from before to after 6 months
An improvement of LVEDV, LVESV, LVDd, and LVDs from before to after 6 months
Pacing QRS duration at 6 months after implantation
Heart failure hospitalization and ventricular arrhythmia events after 2 years
Adverse events after 2 years (lead dislodgement, lead re-implantation, lead fracture, device infection, lead perforation, bleeding, and all-cause death)
