About this trial

The present study is a prospective, multicenter, non-inferiority, randomized controlled trail. It aims to investigate whether the efficacy of conduction system pacing (CSP) is non-inferior to biventricular pacing (BiVP) in patients with heart failure and right ventricular pacing (RVP) requiring upgrading to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients with symptomatic heart failure (LVEF <50%) after right ventricular pacing for at least 3 months;

NYHA class II-IV;

NT-proBNP >125pg/mL in patients with sinus rhythm, NT-proBNP >250pg/mL in patients with atrial fibrillation;

Right ventricular pacing percentage >40%;

Disqualifiers

History of acute myocardial infarction within 3 months before enrollment;

Frequent premature ventricular contraction (>15%) or malignant ventricular arrhythmia which is difficult to control;

History of valvular heart disease intervention within 3 months before enrollment;

After mechanical tricuspid valve replacement;

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Conduction system pacing

    Device

    Firstly, we will attempt LBBP if the patient is allocated to the experimental group. If we can not achieve LBBP successfully, then we will turn to attempt HBP.

  • Biventricular pacing

    Device

    Implantation of RA lead, RV lead and LV lead are attempted using the standard-of-care technique.

Treatment groups

66 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: CSP groupExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: BiVP groupActive comparator 1 intervention
