Conclusion
In our experience, LBBP using the EIS catheter, and the stylet driven
IS-1 pacing lead is safe and feasible in routine clinical practice. The
learning curve involved in adopting this delivery system is gentler, as
it utilizes two existing platforms: namely the Agilis steerable
introducer commonly used in electrophysiology studies, and stylet driven
leads. The ability to shape, as well as to vary the deflection of the
catheter would allow for better success rates at LBBP, especially in
patients with challenging anatomies.
