简要总结
The aim is to provide evidence of the long-term benefits of personalised pacemaker programming on heart function and battery longevity.
This will be achieved by showing in a single centre, phase II, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial that reducing the amount of pacemaker beats to a minimum reverses these changes and extends battery life.
详细描述
Patients (n=70) with long-term (>2 years) permanent pacemakers with avoidable RV pacing will be invited to participate in a single-centre, phase II, randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled trial of optimised pacing programming versus standard care. Those randomised to the intervention arm will have personalised programming to avoid right ventricular pacing, whilst those allocated to standard care will have no programming changes made. All participants will be invited back at 6 months for a repeat echocardiogram, quality of life assessment (EQ-5D-5L), blood tests and pacemaker check.

研究组 & 干预措施
Usual Care
Patients received echocardiogram but no pacemaker reprogramming or personalisation.
Personalised programming
Patient will have tailored pacemaker programming based on echocardiographic findings, blood results, and symptoms in an attempt to minimise right ventricular pacing and extend battery longevity.
干预措施: Personalised programming (Device)
