Summary

The purpose of this study is to test whether the A-V sequential pacing strategy shown to effectively reduce blood pressure in a dog model of hypertension also reduces blood pressure acutely in patients with hypertension (systolic blood pressure greater than 140 mmHg) despite medical treatments.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

A dual chamber pacing system (BackBeat Medical)

For each patient, one pacing electrode was placed in the right atrium and the second electrode was placed in the right ventricle. With a dual chamber pacing system (BackBeat Medical) it was possible to pace the heart with a wide variety of pacing settings.
