Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular pacing site characteristics have been shown to influence response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This study aimed to determine the clinical feasibility of image-guided lead delivery using a 3-dimensional navigational model displaying both LV and right ventricular (RV) pacing targets. Serial echocardiographic measures of clinical response and procedural metrics were evaluated. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-one consecutive patients underwent preimplant cardiac MRI with the generation of a 3-dimensional navigational model depicting optimal segmental targets for LV and RV leads. Lead delivery was guided by the model in matched views to intraprocedural fluoroscopy. Blinded assessment of final lead tip location was performed from postprocedural cardiac computed tomography. Clinical and LV remodeling response criteria were assessed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months using a 6-minute hall walk, quality of life questionnaire, and echocardiography. Mean age and LV ejection fraction was 66 ± 8 years and 26 ± 8%, respectively. LV leads were successfully delivered to a target or adjacent segment in 30 of 31 patients (97%), 68% being nonposterolateral. RV leads were delivered to a target or adjacent segment in 30 of 31 patients (97%), 26% being nonapical. Twenty-three patients (74%) met standard criteria for response (LV end-systolic volume reduction ≥ 15%), 18 patients (58%) for super-response (LV end-systolic volume reduction ≥ 30%). LV ejection fraction improved at 6 months (31 ± 8 versus 26 ± 8%, P=0.04). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates clinical feasibility of dual cardiac resynchronization therapy lead delivery to optimal targets using a 3-dimensional navigational model. High procedural success, acceptable procedural times, and a low rate of early procedural complications were observed. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.
