Electroanatomical mapping- and CT scan image integration-guided pacing lead implantation: A case series and review of the recent literature.
Article in Heart rhythm O2, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWe present a case series and short review of electroanatomical mapping (EAM)-guided pacing lead implantation. The cases illustrate different aspects of EAM use in special circumstances and summarizes our experience with EAM-guided His lead implantation in 32 consecutive patients. Advantages and caveats encountered when using EAM in device procedures are discussed.
objectiveTo illustrate usefulness of EAM-guided lead implantation and computed tomography (CT) image integration in a case series.
methodsLead implantation was performed targeting different anatomically defined regions using EAM for mapping and lead navigation, as well as using the system for image integration for 2 cardiac resynchronization therapy implantations.
resultsFor His bundle pacing lead implantation, a steep learning curve for successful His bundle lead placement seems obtainable (91%) for new implanters using EAM-guided implantation. Successful lead placements in other locations guided by anatomical or physiologically defined positions are demonstrated in individual cases. However, map shifts are frequently encountered and should be recognized and corrected.
conclusionEAM-guided His bundle lead implantation seems to be a useful tool for arriving at high success rates for new His lead implanters with a steep learning curve, if appropriate precautions are undertaken. In selected cases EAM and CT scan image integration can be of benefit in lead implantation in other locations. Knowledge of specific problems in using EAM for device procedures should be recognized.
