Dual-chamber leadless pacing: Atrioventricular synchrony in preclinical models of normal or blocked atrioventricular conduction
Dual-chamber leadless pacemakers (LPs) require robust communication between distinct right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) LPs to achieve atrioventricular (AV) synchrony. The purpose of this preclinical study was to evaluate a novel, continuous implant-to-implant (i2i™) communication methodol...

Zusammenfassung: | Dual-chamber leadless pacemakers (LPs) require robust communication between distinct right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) LPs to achieve atrioventricular (AV) synchrony.
The purpose of this preclinical study was to evaluate a novel, continuous implant-to-implant (i2i™) communication methodology for maintaining AV-synchronous, dual-chamber DDD(R) pacing by the 2 LPs.
RA and RV LPs were implanted and paired in 7 ovine subjects (4 with induced complete heart block). AV synchrony (% AV intervals |
