Left ventricular lead position matters in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy. Previously we showed that repositioning an unfavourably positioned LV lead was beneficial: https://t.co/45oUxKvNwH
Here we show similar observational results in a larger cohort:

Repositioning and optimization of left ventricular lead position in nonresponders to cardiac resynchronization therapy is associated with improved ejection fraction, lower NT-proBNP values, and fewer heart failure symptoms

Right sided CRT upgrade in patient with laminopathy and huge (10x10cm) right atrium. Easy CS cannulation with Worley sheath + handshaped Cordis MPB 1 guide and then amplatz wire for stability during PL lead placement - thank you @seth_j_worley for tips!

The relentless @MdHuang presents his data on HBP/LBBAP in AVN ablation.
*90% HBP success vs. 100% LBBAP
** Equivalent effect (none) on LVEF
***23 patients switched from HBP to LBBAP for LBBB
****Very low complication rate.

New in #JACCCEP: #LBBAP is a feasible & safe alternative for #CRT w/ low & stable thresholds w/ improved NYHA class & #echocardiogram outcomes.

#EPeeps 75yr male, DCM, LBBB, Chronic AF, AVN ablated. Two previous suboptimal LV leads w exit-block, Wise-CRT impossible acoustic window in supine position. Amazing shortening of QRSd to 130ms with HBP+ postlat LV, after extraction of previous 4 leads. Case done w/ Dr. Mörtsell.

For first time in its 208 years, the New England Journal of Medicine has endorsed a presidential candidate. It’s accompanying editorial is the best, most succinct examination I have read of the country’s leadership failure in the pandemic. https://t.co/Lre9JErPuY

Delighted to share our sudden death analysis in PARADIGM-HF @JACCJournals

Paper: https://t.co/8utLjimcwx

Primary findings:
1) ⬆️global variation in prim prev ICD use
2) ICD ⬇️SCD ~56% (similar for ICM and NICM)
3) S/V ⬇️SCD ~20% ICD-eligible and ~50% in ICD pts
