Should this patient be paced? An indication for His bundle study: syncope, a normal P-R interval and a narrow QRS

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology : PACE
J W ListerA J Gosselin

Abstract

This report describes a patient who presented with transient central nervous system symptoms of unknown etiology with an electro-cardiogram exhibiting a narrow QRS complex and normal. P-R interval. The decision to implant a permanent VII pacemaker was made on the basis of a His bundle study that revealed significant prolongation of the HV interval. The successful clinical outcome re-emphasizes the clinical usefulness of electrophysiological investigation in patients with syncope of undetermined etiology.
