[HTML][HTML] Ventricular pacing or dual-chamber pacing for sinus-node dysfunction
Background Dual-chamber (atrioventricular) and single-chamber (ventricular) pacing are
alternative treatment approaches for sinus-node dysfunction that causes clinically significant
bradycardia. However, it is unknown which type of pacing results in the better outcome.
Methods We randomly assigned a total of 2010 patients with sinus-node dysfunction to dual-
chamber pacing (1014 patients) or ventricular pacing (996 patients) and followed them for a
median of 33.1 months. The primary end point was death from any cause or nonfatal stroke …
