Summary

A multicenter, prospective, randomized study in a 1:1 ratio, single-blind with double-blind evaluation to evaluate the superiority of physiological ventricular pacing (proposed modality) vs. managed ventricular pacing (control) for prevention of persistent AF (PeAF) occurrence in patients with prolonged atrioventricular interval (PR≥180 ms) and indication for pacing: sinus node disease and/or paroxysmal type 1 or 2-second degree AV block.

Conditions

  • Sinus Node Disease
  • Atrioventricular; Block, Second Degree (Types I and II)

Interventions

DEVICE

PhysioVP

The Physiological ventricular pacing is achieved by delivering a stimulus to a cardiac conduction structure, such as the bundle of His or left bundle branch of the His-Purkinje system, with a permanent lead. PhysioVP activates the heart through the native His-Purkinje conduction system, thus offering the most physiologic pacing approach to correct the PR interval and avoiding pacing-induced dyssynchrony. A specialized delivery sheath for His-Purkinje system pacing with appropriate or standard leads will be used. The atrial leads will be implanted in the right atrial appendage and will connect the leads to the standard dual-chamber PM. By continuously recording a 12-lead ECG, we determine whether cardiac conduction structure, such as the bundle of His or left bundle branch of the His-Purkinje system, will be achieved.

DEVICE

DDD-VPA

In dual-chamber pacing with the addition of algorithms for ventricular pacing avoidance, also called managed ventricular pacing, the right ventricular (RV) lead is implanted in the myocardial right ventricular (septum or apex). In this pacing mode, the ventricular pacing is minimized by using algorithms for right ventricular pacing avoidance. Therefore, the RV leads will be implanted in the right ventricular myocardial sites (septum or apex) and standard bipolar active or passive fixation leads. In addition, the atrial leads will be implanted in the right atrial appendage and connect leads to the standard dual-chamber PM.
