Popis: | Rightventricular(RV)apicalpacingcreatesanabnormalventricularactivation pattern inducing cardiac dyssynchrony, ventricular dysfunc-tion,andanincreasedmortalityrisk[1–3].Atrial-basedpacingtomain-tainatrioventricular(AV)synchronycandecreasetheincidenceofatrialfibrillation (AF), heart failure and overall mortality rates [1]. However,evenwhenAV-nodefunctionispreserved,dual-chamber(DDD)pacingoften results in frequent ventricular pacing [3]. Previous analyses linkthefrequencyofRVpacedbeatstoincreasedrisksofAFandheartfailurein patients with sinus-node disease [4].To overcome the limitations of pacing-induced asynchronouselectricalactivation,devicealgorithmshavebeendevelopedtopromotenormal AV synchrony by preserving the physiologic ventricular activa-tion sequence [2].Specifically, intrinsic conduction search (ICS) hasbeen shown to lead to a decrease in unnecessary RV pacing and itsadverse consequences on left ventricular function [5,6].Moreover,pulsegeneratorlongevityisanimportant issueinthecareof pacemaker patients [7]. One of the determinants of pacemaker lon-gevityisthe energy consumption ofthepulsegenerator,whichdependson programmable variables, including output parameters of the system(voltage and pulse width), and the frequency and percentage of pacing.A previous study using an algorithm to preserve normal AV synchrony |
