Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Conduction system pacing (CSP) is the cornerstone treatment of selected patients, and it is a new option which is used for ventricular stimulation. It has emerged as an alternative to conventional right ventricular pacing. CSP has recently emerged as an alternative or bailout strategy of biventricular pacing to obtain cardiac resynchronization therapy. CSP is a technique of pacing that involves the implantation of permanent pacing, which leads towards different sites of specialized cardiac conduction systems. This includes His bundle pacing and left bundle branch pacing. With this Special Issue, we aim to elucidate the CSP approach to cardiac pacing. In this regard, we encourage researchers to submit their work on the following key aspects of CSP: tools, differences between lumenless fixed screw and stylet-driven leads, and adaptation to the characteristics of any candidate. We encourage contributions from tools and tailored patient approaches to the integration with an electro-anatomical mapping system and CRT strategy based on CSP.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Clinical Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
