Alpha-Loop for Permanent Pacemaker Implantation in Restrictive Cardiomyopathy.

Alpha-Loop for Permanent Pacemaker Implantation in Restrictive Cardiomyopathy. J Invasive Cardiol. 2020 Apr;32(4):E98 Authors: Sharma YP, Kanabar K, Makode S, Prasad K Abstract High-grade and complete heart block commonly occurs in adult patients with restrictive cardiomyopathy, and requires aggressive monitoring and prophylactic pacemaker/defibrillator. There are limited data on the procedural details of pacemaker implantation in this group of patients, and as reported, special maneuvers may be required for ventricular lead placement.
