Objective To study the feasibility and safety of right ventricular angiography(RVG)to as-sist pacing in the left bundle branch region(LBBaP).Methods The retrospective study was adopted.A total of 67 patients receiving LBBaP in this hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were included as the study sub-jects.The basic information of the patients was collected,including the sex,age,clinical diagnosis,EKG pa-rameters,etc.The RVG three-stage adjuvant LBBaP was adopted.The specific operation was to perform RVG under the right anterior oblique perspective of 30°.A straight line was connected between the highest point of the tricuspid valvular ring and the apex of the right ventricle,and then the straight line was divided into 3 e-qual parts.The proximal junction was the LBBaP electrode implantation area.The success of LBBaP operation was defined as the simultaneous satisfaction of right bundle branch block form of QRS wave in unipolar pa-cing,QRS wave width(QRSd)<130 ms and peak time of left ventricular excitation<90 ms.The operation related parameters and occurrence situation of complications were recorded.The follow up was conducted in 1,3,6,12 months.The electrode parameters,electrocardiogram and color Doppler ultrasound results were recor-ded.Results Among 67 patients,43 cases were males aged(65.0±8.0)years old;twenty-two cases(32.8%)were symptomatic sick sinus syndrome,and 45 cases(67.2%)were second-degree type Ⅱ and above atrioven-tricular block.The preoperative QRS width(QRSd)was(103.0±22.0)ms.The LBBaP operation success was in 61 cases(91.0%).The operation time was(134.6±32.3)min,and the X-ray exposure time was(43.6±12.6)min.The pace-making threshold value was(0.8±0.4)V,the R wave perception amplitude was(12.1±4.7)mV,and the impedance was(741.2±130.8)Ω.At 1 V pacing,the peak time of left ventricular activation in the lead V5 was(83.4±13.7)ms.The postoperative QRSd was(116.5±18.3)ms.During the operation,8 cases developed interventricular septal perforation and 1 case developed bundle branch injury.No other serious complications occurred.After 12 months of follow-up,all patients had stable electrode parame-ters.Conclusion RVG three-stage adjuvant LBBaP is a simple,feasible and safe physiological pacing method.
