Abstract

Recently, conduction system pacing has been performed in patients with impaired cardiac function. We report a case in which a DF4 implantable cardioverter defibrillator lead was screwed directly into the left bundle branch area with the support of a steerable delivery sheath.

Keywords: ICD; LBBAD; left bundle branch area pacing; left bundle branch pacing‐optimized implantable cardioverter defibrillator; steerable delivery sheath.
