Feasibility of CT guided CRT

Variable	Value
Feasibility of CT guided LV lead placement in target vein	16/18 (89)
Feasibility of CT guided LV lead placement in target AHA segment^a	15/18 (83)
All‐cause mortality	0
Heart failure hospitalization	0
Other cardiovascular hospitalization	2/18 (11)^b
Intraprocedural related complications	1/18 (5.6)^c

Note: Values are presented as n (%). Feasibility of using real‐time cardiac CT image overlay guidance, placing the LV lead in the CT‐derived target vein and target segment and maintaining CRT pacing at 6 months.

Abbreviations: AHA, American Heart Association; CRT, cardiac resynchronization therapy; CT, computed tomography; ICD, implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator; LV, left ventricular.

^{^a}

cathode placed in target segment

^{^b}

One patient was admitted with angina treated with optimization of anti‐anginal medication. Another patient with unsuccessful LV lead implantation was admitted electively for leadless LV endocardial pacing system (WiSE‐CRT, EBR systems).

^{^c}

One procedural complication of pericardial effusion with hypotension successfully treated with pericardial drainage secondary to difficult ICD lead placement within the right ventricle with no long term sequelae.
