Summary

Multicentre, prospective, double blinded, randomized study designed as an intrapatient comparison to evaluate the effects of the Biotronik Closed-loop Stimulation algorithm on prevalence and timing of haemodynamic variations and clinical prodromes induced by head-up tilt test in patients underwent pacemaker implantation for refractory cardioinhibitory vasovagal syncope.

Conditions

  • Syncope, Vasovagal, Neurally-Mediated

Interventions

DEVICE

Closed-loop Stimulation on first

Closed-loop Stimulation algorithm is turned on in the device. The patient performs a head up tilt test. After a week Closed-loop Stimulation algorithm is turned off and the patient performs a second head up tilt test.
