Title Of Article :
Implantation techniques of left ventricular pacing electrode for cardiac resynchronization therapy
Abstract :
Cardiac resynchronization therapy is contingent when left ventricular pacing electrode is placed in desired optimal location. At the present, left ventricular pacing electrode is often placed in coronary sinus branch originating from the left ventricular target region via coronary sinus cannulation by techniques based on percutaneous transvenous methods. Numerous implantation techniques are available for successful implantation of left ventricular pacing electrode in target branch of coronary sinus. There is some alternative implantation techniques in case of failed percutaneous transvenous route.
