VDD pacing offers atrial leadless pacing, relying on atrial sensing reliability. This study confirms stable atrial sensing thresholds in VDD pacing systems over 180 days, ensuring reliable performance.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Electrophysiology

Context:

  • Ventricular Demand (VDD) pacing is an alternative to Dual Chamber (DDD) pacing.
  • VDD pacing enables p-wave synchronous ventricular pacing without an atrial lead.
  • System reliability hinges on consistent atrial sensing.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the reliability of atrial sensing in VDD pacing systems.
  • To measure intraoperative atrial amplitude and postoperative atrial sensing thresholds.
  • To assess the stability of atrial sensing thresholds during a 180-day follow-up period.

Summary:

  • Intraoperative mean atrial amplitude was 2.4 mV. Postoperative mean atrial sensing threshold in the first 5 days was 1.02 mV.
  • No statistical differences were observed in mean atrial sensing thresholds at 30, 90, and 180 days.

  • Postoperative thresholds were significantly lower than intraoperative amplitudes, with stable individual variations and no oversensing incidents.
  • Impact:

    • Demonstrates the stability and reliability of atrial sensing in VDD pacing systems.
    • Supports VDD pacing as a viable alternative for patients requiring ventricular pacing without an atrial lead.
    • Provides crucial data for programming atrial sensitivity and ensuring patient safety in VDD pacing.
