Resynchronisation Therapy

Troubleshooting of left ventricular (LV) lead fractures in cardiac resynchronisation therapy patients is important, especially for those with limited and problematic transvenous LV lead placement. In this case, surgical epicardial LV lead implantation was employed.

Left Ventricular Lead Placement

Left ventricular (LV) lead in cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) is the most important and difficult lead to place, leading to abandonment of up to 10–15 % of procedures. Here we discuss various difficulties encountered in percutaneous placement of LV leads and what all can be done to ensure successful placement of the same and to prevent the already compromised patient from the requirement of epicardial lead placement.
