In this interview, Dr. Margarida Pujol-Lopez from the Hospital Clinic in Barcelona discusses the differences between conduction system pacing (CSP) and biventricular pacing (BVP) in treating heart failure. CSP is more physiological and may offer better outcomes than BVP, which fails in about 30% of patients. The CONSYST-CRT trial, comparing CSP and BVP, showed that CSP is non-inferior to BVP based on primary and secondary endpoints, including mortality, heart failure, and QRS shortening.

Revascularization for patients with ischaemic left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction takes one of two forms - percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), both of which have positives and negatives. STICH, published in 2011, analysed the role of CABG in patients with LV systolic dysfunction and looked at improvement of clinical outcomes in 1,212 patients from 22 countries across the world, optimised to either optimal medical therapy or optimal medical therapy plus CABG. REVIVED-BCIS2 in 2022 looked at 700 patients in the UK with a similar patient population of 35% ejection fraction or less, randomized to PCI or optimal medical therapy. This interview dives into their analysis of the results from these exciting trials and investigation into the discrepancies between the outcomes.
