Clinical Trial: To Pace or Not to Pace in Sinus Node Disease

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: Comparison of Ventricular Septal Pacing With Optimized Atrioventricular (AV) Delay to no Pacing in Sinus Node Disease (SND) Patients.

Brief Summary:

Optimal pacing strategy for patients with SND is still unknown, although several publications in the past years demonstrated a deleterious effect of ventricular pacing. However, pacing has always been apical in these trials, and to which extent this absence of pacing is beneficial for patients with very long PR intervals is still to be found.

The aim of this study is to compare ventricular septal pacing to no pacing in patients with SND.
