LBB Area Pacing vs RV Pacing for AV Block and Preserved Left Ventricular Function:
The #LEAP-Block Trial

📍499 patients with #LVEF ≥50% randomized to LBBAP vs #RVP across 14 Chinese hospitals.

📍 Primary endpoint: 2.4% vs 12.5% favoring #LBBAP (P=0.003).

📍 HF events: 3.4% vs 11.3% with LBBAP vs RVP.

📍 LBBAP ⬇️ the 24-month primary endpoint risk (HR 0.37, 95% CI 0.19–0.73), with no significant differences in mortality or device complications.

🚨 NEW SERIES ALERT 🚨 “ASCs and EP” is here!

Guidelines support AFib ablation. Patients want it. So why can’t they get in? 🤔

@DrRoderickTung and Dr. Rohit Malhotra talk about how lab capacity, not evidence, is holding care back, and how #AmbulatorySurgeryCenters (ASCs) could help more patients get the care they need sooner.
