Chronic Apical and Nonapical Right Ventricular Pacing in Patients with High-Grade Atrioventricular Block: Results of the Right Pace Study

2018

Objective. The aim of the study was to compare the two approaches to chronic right ventricular pacing currently adopted in clinical practice: right ventricular apical (RVA) and non-RVA pacing. Background. Chronic RVA pacing is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation, morbidity, and even mortality. Non-RVA pacing may yield more physiologic ventricular activation and provide potential long-term benefits and has recently been adopted as standard procedure at many implanting centers. Methods. The Right Pace study was a multicenter, prospective, single-blind, nonrandomized trial involving 437 patients indicated for dual-chamber pacemaker implantation with a high percentage of RV…

Is there a right place to pace the right ventricle? Evaluation of apical and septal positions in a pacemaker population: Study protocol for a prospec…

2014

Abstract Introduction The main objective of research in pacemaker therapy has been to provide the best physiologic way to pace the heart. Despite the good results provided by right ventricular pacing minimization and by biventricular pacing in specific subsets of heart failure patients, these options present many limitations for standard pacemaker recipients. In these patients, pacing the right ventricle at alternative sites could result in a lower degree of left intraventricular dyssynchrony. Despite the lack of strong evidence and the difficulty in placing and accurately classifying the final lead position, pacing at alternative right ventricular sites seems to have become a standard proc…
