(FIT)-Module 5 Workshop 8: Device Cases-Asirvatham Case 3 Question

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video, a pacing lead is placed in a specified heart location, and viewers are asked to identify which potential complication is least likely to occur at this site. Options include high thresholds, His bundle capture, injury to the compact AV node, interventricular perforation, and far field sensing of atrial signals. The anatomical positioning is described in detail, featuring landmarks like the aortic leaflets, interventricular septum, and mitral and tricuspid valves. The exercise aims to correlate the lead's location with possible pacing issues, emphasizing understanding of least likely outcomes in this context.
