INTRODUCTION: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) maintains electrical and mechanical synchronization of the ventricles. It is a relatively physiological pacing mode, with low and stable pacing threshold and wider indications. LBBAP in children has been rarely reported.
METHODS: This study observed 12 children attempted LBBAP from January 2019 to January 2021 in the department of pediatric cardiology of Anzhen Hospital prospectively. Clinical data, pacing parameters, electrocardiograms, intracardiac electrograms, echocardiographic measurements and complications were recorded at implant and during follow-up.
RESULTS: The 12 patients aged between 3 and 14 years old and weighted from 13 to 48 kg. Eleven patients were diagnosed with third-degree atrioventricular block and 1 patient (case 4) suffered from cardiac dysfunction due to right ventricular apical pacing (RVAP). Left bundle branch area pacing was successfully achieved in all patients with narrow QRS complexes and V1 lead showed changes like right bundle branch block in the pacing electrocardiogram. Left ventricular ejection fraction in case 4 recovered on the 3rd day after LBBAP. The median of left ventricular end diastolic diameter Z score of the 12 patients decreased from 1.75 to 1.05 3 months after implantation (p < 0.05). The median of paced QRS duration was 103 ms. The median of pacing threshold, R-wave amplitude and impedance were 0.85 V, 15 mV and 717 Ω respectively and remained stable during follow-up. No complications such as loss of capture, lead dislodgement or septal perforation occurred.
CONCLUSIONS: Left bundle branch area pacing can be performed safely in children with narrow QRS duration and stable pacing parameters. Cardiac dysfunction caused by long-term RVAP can be corrected by LBBAP quickly.
