note = "Left bundle branch block (LBBB) can result in dyssynchronous left ventricular (LV) contraction, leading to LV remodeling and worsening congestive heart failure (CHF).1 Traditional cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with a right ventricular endocardial and an LV epicardial lead (in the coronary sinus) has demonstrated reverse remodeling and improvement of LV ejection fraction (EF) as well as clinical outcomes in such patients.2 Recently, His bundle pacing (HBP) has been attempted as a more physiological method of CRT by reducing the QRS duration in the setting of LBBB.",
