    An Interesting Case of Permanent His-Bundle Pacing and a Review of the Current Literature
    (MediaSphere Medical, 2017-04-01) Ezzeddine, Fatima; Dandamudi, Gopi; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Permanent His-bundle pacing (HBP) is a true physiological form of ventricular pacing that has been shown in recent years to be both safe and feasible in clinical practice. However, there are limited data about its long-term performance, especially when compared with both right ventricular and biventricular pacing. In this article, we present a thought-provoking case study that illustrates the usefulness of permanent HBP in a patient with long-standing complete infranodal heart block and progressive heart failure, and discuss the current literature highlighting the evidence behind this form of permanent pacing.
