Restoration of Atrioventricular Synchrony Trial
Not Applicable
Terminated
- Conditions
- First Degree AV Block
- Interventions
- Device: Cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator
- Registration Number
- NCT01275833
- Lead Sponsor
- Boston Scientific Corporation
- Brief Summary
The objective of the trial is to observe the effects of restoring atrioventricular (AV) synchrony in subjects with prolonged PR intervals. This will be assessed both acutely and chronically using echocardiographic and functional measurements.
- Detailed Description
Same as above.
