Conduction system pacing (CSP), particularly Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing, provides a physiologic alternative. In Limited Resource Countries (LRCs) like Thailand, Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) under-penetration persists due to high costs and a shortage of operators skilled in coronary venous anatomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To share the experience and provide clinical update of CSP as a sustainable, cost-effective physiological pacing strategy to improve access to advanced arrhythmia management in resource-constrained environments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review explores the implementation of minimalist protocols and CSP-based CRT.
