Parikshit Sharma, MD, MPH, joins Rounding at Rush to discuss His bundle and conduction system pacing, which involves placing permanent leads anywhere along the AV conduction system to maintain biventricular pacing and synchrony.
Dr. Sharma is a cardiac electrophysiologist at RUSH University System for Health who specializes in managing rhythm disorders of the heart. He is the section chief of cardiac electrophysiology, the director of the electrophysiology lab and an associate professor of medicine at RUSH Medical College.
“We can decrease heart failure hospitalizations in patients with His bundle pacing compared to right ventricular pacing,” says Dr. Sharma. “And while right ventricular pacing can be associated with adverse clinical outcomes, such as cardiomyopathy, heart failure hospitalizations, atrial fibrillation and associated mortality, His bundle pacing can essentially prevent a lot of them from occurring.”
