Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the impact of conduction system pacing in comparison to right ventricular apical pacing on exercise capacity as measured by peak oxygen uptake VO2peak in heart failure patients with indication for pacing but no compelling indication for cardiac resynchronization therapy CRT The mechanisms of exercise intolerance in heart failure patients influenced by conduction system pacing will be assessed
Detailed Description: Heart failure HF is a serious condition that affects a lot of people and places a significant burden on the healthcare system Some HF patients also have issues with the natural electrical system of their heart causing uneven heart contractions and worsening heart function A treatment known as CRT has been helping such patients but it does not work for everyone A new technique called conduction system pacing CSP has emerged that might offer a more natural way of maintaining heart contractions

This study aims to determine if CSP can enhance the ability of HF patients to exercise by looking at their maximum oxygen consumption a measure of exercise capacity It will also explore why some HF patients struggle with exercise more than others Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either the new CSP treatment or a standard pacing method right ventricular apical pacing Patients will be checked regularly over a follow-up period of 24 weeks

The main goal is to see if patients can exercise better with CSP after 24 weeks The study will also look at other heart measures and safety concerns related to the devices This study might show that CSP can help improve exercise capacity and heart function in certain HF patients The results could guide health care professionals in offering better tailored treatments for their patients
