Physiological Pacing vs.Conventional Pacing in the Prevention of Pacemaker-induced Cardiomyopathy: A Randomized Study
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
The implantation of a pacemaker and conventional cardiac pacing from the right ventricle (apex or septum) is an effective and safe therapy for the treatment of patients with atrioventricular block and bradycardia.
