Cardiac pacing has evolved considerably over the years from its initial introduction as a lifesaving measure by asynchronous ventricular pacing. Pitfalls of ventricular-only pacing were recognized relatively early, which led to the introduction of atrioventricular (AV) synchronous pacing that was subjected to rigorous clinical studies.1 A meta-analysis of major pacing mode trials revealed that AV…

Since the 1980s, dramatic advances in electrophysiology procedures have occurred. Catheter positioning is most often assisted by fluoroscopy. Sophisticated electroanatomical mapping systems can also display catheter position and create a 3D depiction of the anatomy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) data can also be integrated, facilitating complex ablation procedures…
