Complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB)-like QRS morphology of right ventricular pacing at pacemaker implantation satisfying the American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology Foundation/HeartRhythm Society criteria of CLBBB was associated with development of pacing induced cardiomyopathy.
