Background
Unnecessary ventricular pacing in sinus node disease (SND) must be avoided. To test the hypothesis that in SND, with or without 1st degree atrioventricular (AV) block, cumulative percent ventricular pacing (cum%VP) can be limited by low right atrial septal (LRAS) instead of right atrial appendage (RAA) pacing.
Methods
We studied 102 dual‐chamber pacemaker recipients with SND. The PQ interval on 12‐lead electrocardiogram and the atrial paced to ventricular sensed interval (Ap‐Vs) during LRAS and RAA pacing were measured and compared at implantation, 3 months and 1 year of follow‐up. Group 1 included 62 patients with baseline PQ interval |
