Study Details

Brief summary:

Participants in this study will either have heart failure (HF) and are scheduled to undergo pace maker (PM) implantation, cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P), cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation, His bundle pacing (HIBP) or left bundle area pacing (LBAP) (including HIBP/LBAP for patients with HF, for patients who have failed CRT implant or patients who are CRT non-responders), or have atrioventricular (AV) block or bradycardia and are scheduled to undergo dual chamber pacemaker implantation. In this study additional heart rhythm measurements will be collected during the implant procedure to better understand how His bundle and/or parahisian pacing (HISP) effects electrical conduction in the hearts of patients with HF or AV block.

The hypothesis is that His bundle or parahisian pacing (HISP) and left bundle area pacing (LBAP) may normalize atrioventricular (AV) conduction with a narrow combination of the Q wave, R wave and S wave (QRS complex) in functional bundle branch block or conduction delay in patients with heart failure (HF).

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

Heart Failure Group

Patients who have any QRS duration and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% will be enrolled in this arm. The primary care physician will have recommended either PM, CRT-D Implantation, CRT-P Implantation, HIBP or LBAP (including HIBP/LBAP for patients with HF, for patients who have failed CRT implant or patients who are CRT non-responders) . (This is Standard of Care for this patient population; the procedures will occur even if the patient does not participate in the study.)

Atrioventricular Block/Bradycardia Group

Patients who have developed second or third degree atrioventricular block (AV block) or bradycardia will be enrolled in this arm. The primary care physician will have recommended dual chamber pacemaker implantation. (This is Standard of Care for this patient population; the procedures will occur even if the patient does not participate in the study.)

Interventions

CRT-D Implantation

Cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator

CRT-P Implantation

Cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker

Dual Chamber Pacemaker Implantation

Primary outcome measure

  • QRS duration as measured by 12-lead ECG [ Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months ]
