Abbott (NYSE: ABT) announced the successful completion of the world's first in-human left bundle branch area leadless pacing (LBBAP) procedures using the company's investigational AVEIR™ Conduction System Pacing (CSP) leadless pacemaker system, as part of a feasibility study. These procedures mark the first time a leadless pacemaker has been implanted into the left bundle branch area, a key part of the heart's electrical conduction system, designed to mimic the heart's natural beat, offering people with slower-than-normal heart rhythms a new potential treatment option. Read More: https://lnkd.in/dBZmv8-S "While both conduction system pacing and leadless pacing provide distinct benefits to many patients, they have been separate options – until now," said Dr. Devi G Nair, MD, FACC, FHRS, director of cardiac electrophysiology at St. Bernards Medical Center, Jonesboro, Arkansas, and a key contributor to the study. "For the first time, the study of the AVEIR CSP leadless pacemaker system evaluates a pioneering approach that directly targets the left bundle branch area, combining the advantages of conduction system and leadless pacing technologies." #MedEdgeMea #Abbott #HeartHealth #LeadlessPacing #CardiacCare #InnovationInMedicine #HealthTech Petr Neuzil FDA Randel Woodgrift Rahul Doshi HonorHealth Shephal Doshi MD
