PROTECT-SYNC study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial that is designed to assess whether LBBAP may reduce the risk of composite primary endpoint including all cause mortalty, HF hospitalization and/or urgent HF related visit, and CRT-upgrade event, compared to RVP in patients who require substantial (>40%) ventricular pacing. Patients who require pacemaker and substantial (>40%) ventricular pacing will be randomized to LBBAP or RVP group, and a total of 7 medical centers across Republic of Korea will enroll 450 patients during 2 years of enrollment period, and followed for 2 years of follow-up period.

The purpose of this study to compare the clinical outcomes of Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing (LBBAP) compared to Right Ventricular Pacing (RVP) in bradyarrhythmia patients who require high burden of ventricular pacing (>40%).
