Conduction System Pacing Versus Biventricular Pacing After Atrioventricular Node Ablation

Atrioventricular node ablation (AVNA) with biventricular (BiV) pacemaker implantation is a feasible treatment option in patients with symptomatic refractory atrial fibrillation and heart failure. However, conduction system pacing (CSP) modalities, including His bundle pacing and left bundle branch pacing, could offer advantages over BiV pacing by providing more physiological activation. The randomized, interventional, multicentric study will explore whether CSP is non-inferior to BiV pacing in echocardiographic and clinical outcomes in heart failure (EF \<50%) patients with symptomatic AF and narrow QRS scheduled for AVNA.
