Single-chamber ventricular leadless pacemakers do not support atrial pacing or consistent atrioventricular synchrony. A dual-chamber leadless pacemaker system consisting of two devices implanted ...
The CAPTURE study investigated the accuracy, threshold variability, and applicability of a device that includes both an atrial and RV threshold measurement algorithms. In addition, the longevity ...
Ventricular Capture Management™ (VCM) is a Medtronic Kappa pacemakers (PM) feature that automatically measures pacing threshold through detection of the evoked response after a pacing stimulus. The ...
In the version of the Research Highlight initially published online and in print, the text “29.3% had an adequate 6-month pacing capture threshold” should have ...
Cardiac pacemakers are limited by device-related complications, notably infection and problems related to pacemaker leads. We studied a miniaturized, fully self-contained leadless pacemaker that is ...
A novel leadless cardiac pacemaker demonstrates stable performance and reassuring safety over 1 year after implantation, according to results from a small study published in the April 21, 2015, issue ...
NEW ORLEANS -- A leadless dual-chamber pacemaker with bidirectional wireless communication turned in very promising short-term results in patients with standard indications for dual-chamber pacing, ...
Transvenous leads that deliver pacing therapy to the heart via a subcutaneous pacemaker cause complications in approximately 12.5% of patients implanted with the device. In a new study published in ...
