Conclusion
LV lead placement guided by Inner-Cath alone was successfully and safely
performed in over 95% of the patients undergoing de-novo or CRT
implantation upgrade. This methodology for LV lead placement with
Inner-Cath alone may be preferable, especially in CRT candidates with
severe LV dysfunction in terms of its shorter procedure time, smaller
size of guiding sheath and fewer procedure-related complications.
