    Conduction system pacing (CSP) shows greater improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) compared to biventricular pacing (BVP) in heart failure patients.

  • 2

    CSP significantly reduces heart failure hospitalization risk and echocardiographic non-response while increasing super-response rates.

  • 3

    The overall certainty of evidence comparing CSP and BVP remains low to very low, highlighting the need for further large-scale randomized controlled trials.

  • 4

    CSP is associated with shorter fluoroscopy time and similar complication rates compared to BVP, making it a promising alternative.

  • 5

    Benefits of CSP are most pronounced in patients with classical CRT indications, particularly those with left bundle branch block.
