What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
left ventricular septal pacingDevice
For left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) failure cases, use left ventricular septal pacing instead of LBBP; others were same as traditional CRT.
right ventricular apical pacingDevice
For left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) failure cases, use right ventricular apical pacing instead of LBBP; others were same as traditional CRT.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing left ventricular septal pacing and right ventricular apical pacing in people with Heart Failure and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy, run by Fu Wai Hospital, Beijing, China at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05985408, which also lists 3 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Aug 2023.
