Plain-language summary
This is a single-center, randomized controlled study. The aim of this study is to compare the impact of left bundle branch area pacing versus traditional right ventricular pacing on the incidence of atrial fibrillation in patients with atrioventricular block.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Adult patients aged 18-85;
* AV block patients with ventricular pacing indications and the expected rate of ventricular pacing(VP)\> 40%, including (a) third-degree AV block; (b) second degree AV block (type II); (c) intermittent advanced AV block with expected VP\>40%; (d) symptomatic first degree AV block and PR interval on ECG \> 300ms;
* Signed informed consent;
Exclusion Criteria:
* Baseline echocardiographic assessment of patients with impaired LV function (LVEF\<50%);
* Patients with the history of atrial fibrillation;
* Having difficulties in follow-up: Those who cannot accept 2-year follow-up on time due to physical condition or other reasons;
* Pacemaker replacement without new implanted ventricular electrodes;
* Surgery is required within 1 year due to severe structural heart disease;
* Patients with tricuspid mechanical valve replacement, or congenital heart disease (including transposition of the great arteries, or permanent left superior vena cava, etc);
* AV block resulting from: (a) Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM), (b) ventricular septal defect repair, and those who are unlikely to achieve successful LBBAP procedure.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
