    Abstract Patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) and left bundle branch block (LBBB) are currently treated with biventricular pacing (BiV) which has a Class IA recommendation. Given the possibility to re-establish the inter and intra-ventricular synchrony, BiV is commonly referred to as cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This wording is widely utilized and over time the terms BiV and CRT have become interchangeable. Conduction system pacing (CSP) is emerging as a valid therapeutic opportunity to obtain CRT restoring the native conduction via the Purkinje network. Therefore the acronym CRT is no longer synonymous with BiV only but could also refer to CSP. A terminology update is needed to include the resource of CSP to ensure better communication among all the stakeholders involved in managing recipients of cardiac devices and should be a fundamental step in advancing the quality of patient care. Making use of the NBG code to describe the implantable cardiac device would ease such terminology update, since only the first three positions of the five letters NBG code are commonly utilized, while the last two are rarely used.

    Abstract Introduction: Restoring physiological cardiac electrical activity in patients with conduction disease can be crucial for the survival and quality of life. Conduction system pacing (CSP) is a valuable option, although it is limited by technical challenges in difficult anatomies. 3D electroanatomical mapping (3D-EAM) can support CSP ensuring high electro-anatomical precision and low fluoroscopy.
    Objectives: We evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of a systematic 3D-EAM use to guide CSP in difficult anatomical scenarios (highly dilated atria, congenital cardiomyopathies, failed biventricular implants (BiV) and pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM)).
    Methods: Forty-three consecutive patients (27 males, 75 ± 10 years old) with standard pacing indications and difficult anatomical scenarios were included. The right atrium, His cloud, and atrio-ventricular septum were reconstructed by 3D-EAM. The His bundle (HB) was the initial target, while left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) was aimed at in case of unsatisfactory parameters, sub-optimally paced QRS, or impossibility of reaching the HB.
    Results: CSP was successful in 37 (86%) patients (15 HBP; 22 LBBAP). Mean mapping, fluoroscopy, and procedural times were 18 ± 7 min, 7 ± 5 min, 98 ± 47 min, respectively. The mean pacing threshold, R wave sensing, and pacing impedance of CSP lead were 1.2 ± 0.5V@0.5ms, 11.4 ± 6.2 mV, 736 ± 306 Ω, respectively. Baseline and paced QRS were 139 ± 38 ms and 114 ± 23 ms, respectively. No procedural complications were observed.
    Conclusions: 3D-EAM allowed the accurate definition of the His cloud and high ventricular septum and effectively guided CSP. It facilitated CSP in complex anatomies, with a procedural success rate of 86%. The results were satisfactory and reproducible, with acceptable fluoroscopy and procedural times.

    Abstract His Bundle Pacing (HBP) is a form of physiologic pacing achieved through implantation of a pacing electrode into the His bundle. HBP began 20 years ago without any dedicated tools. As specific tools became available HBP quickly spread and proved to be a viable alternative to traditional right ventricle pacing. HBP is reliable and effective in preserving the physiologic ventricular synchrony with clinical benefits particularly evident when a high percentage of pacing is required. Unipolar signals from the lead tip guide the implant. 3D electroanatomical mapping could further assist the procedure.

    Abstract The conduction system of the human heart is composed of specialized cardiomyocytes that initiate and propagate the electric impulse with consequent rhythmic and synchronized contraction of the atria and ventricles, resulting in the normal cardiac cycle. Although the His-Purkinje system (HPS) was already described more than a century ago, there has been a recent resurgence of conduction system pacing (CSP), where pacing leads are positioned in the His bundle region and left bundle branch area to provide physiological cardiac activation as alternatives to the unnatural myocardial stimulation obtained with conventional right ventricular and biventricular pacing. In this review, we describe the fundamental anatomical and pathophysiological aspects of the specialized HPS along with the CSP technique's nuts and bolts to highlight its potential benefits in everyday clinical practice.

    Abstract Background: The Medtronic SelectSecure Model 3830 lumenless lead (Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN) is commonly used for conduction system pacing (CSP). However, with this increased use, the potential need for transvenous lead extraction (TLE) also will increase. While extraction of endocardial 3830 leads is rather well described especially in pediatric and adult congenital heart disease population, there is very limited data on extraction of CSP leads. In the present study, we reported our preliminary experience on TLE of CSP leads and provided technical considerations.
    Methods: The study population comprised 6 consecutive patients (67% male; mean age 70 ± 22 years) with CSP leads (3830 leads), including left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) lead (n = 3) and His pacing lead (n = 3) undergoing TLE. Overall target leads were 17. The mean implant duration time of CSP leads was 97 ± 90 months [range 8-193).
    Results: Manual traction was successful in 2 cases and mechanical extraction tools were required in the remaining cases. Sixteen leads (94%) were completely extracted, whereas incomplete removal was observed in one lead (6%) among 1 patient. Of note, in the only lead incompletely removed, we observed retention of < 1-cm remnant of lead material consisting of the screw of 3830 LBBP lead into the interventricular septum. No failure of lead extraction was reported and no major complications occurred.
    Conclusions: Our findings demonstrated that at an experienced center the success of TLE of chronically implanted CSP leads is high in the absence of major complications also when mechanical extraction tools are needed.
