Ventricular pacing or dual-chamber pacing for sinus-node dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Dual-chamber (atrioventricular) and single-chamber (ventricular) pacing are alternative treatment approaches for sinus-node dysfunction that causes clinically significant bradycardia. However, it is unknown which type of pacing results in the better outcome. METHODS We randomly assigned a total of 2010 patients with sinus-node dysfunction to dual-chamber pacing (1014 patients) or v...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of dual-chamber pacing compared with ventricular pacing for sinus node dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Compared with single-chamber ventricular pacing, dual-chamber pacing can reduce adverse events and, as a result, improve quality of life in patients paced for sick sinus syndrome. It is not clear, however, how these benefits compare with the increased cost of dual-chamber pacemakers. METHODS AND RESULTS We used 4-year data from a 2010-patient, randomized trial to estimate the incre...
متن کاملDual-Chamber Pacing Is Superior to Ventricular Pacing
In the August 1, 1996, issue of Circulation, Connolly et al presented their evaluation of current data concerning the use of DDD versus VVI pacing in patients with preserved sinus rhythm. They described a dilemma of DDD/VVI pacing in the following terms: “There are reasons to believe that dual-chamber pacing improves patient tolerance of pacing and reduces morbidity and mortality . . . However,...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcome of Single-Chamber Atrial Pacing Compared with Dual-Chamber Pacing in Patients with Sinus-Node Dysfunction and Intact Atrioventricular Node Conduction
PURPOSE The optimal pacing mode with either single chamber atrial pacemaker (AAI or AAIR) or dual chamber pacemaker (DDD or DDDR) is still not clear in sinus-node dysfunction (SND) and intact atrioventricular (AV) conduction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who were implanted with permanent pacemaker using AAI(R) (n = 73) or DDD(R) (n = 113) were compared. RESULTS The baseline characteristic...
