About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Bradycardia

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 100 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Patient has been implanted with dual chamber SJM Victory® device with VIP™ for 1 month (± 2 weeks). At the time of pacemaker implant, VIP™ is programmed "OFF". At the time of enrollment, patient is paced in the RV ≤ 60% of the time. Patient is medically stable. Exclusion Criteria: Patient has evidence of complete AV block, such that ventricular pacing would be required as part of the patient's routine management. Patient is indicated for AF Suppression. Patient has persistent or chronic atrial fibrillation. Patient is unable to comply with the follow-up visits due to geographical, psychological, or any other reasons. Patient is currently participating in another device research study. Patient is younger than 18 years of age. Patient is pregnant. Patients life expectancy is less than 12 months.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Intrinsic Ventricular Events
This outcome measured evaluated the difference in the percentage of intrinsic ventricular events between VIP On and VIP Off. A higher percentage indicates more intrinsic ventricular events and a lower amount of unnecessary RV pacing.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Arrhythmias
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the percentage of time a patient spent in atrial tachycardia/atrial fibrillation (arrhythmia burden) calculated by the device between VIP On and VIP Off.
Percentage of Atrial Sensing to Ventricular Sensing (%PR)
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the percentage of atrial sensing to ventricular sensing (%PR) detected by the device between VIP On and VIP Off. A higher percentage indicates more intrinsic ventricular events and a lower amount of unnecessary RV pacing.
Percentage of Atrial Sensing to Ventricular Pacing (%PV)
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the percentage of Atrial Sensing to Ventricular Pacing (%PV) between VIP On and VIP Off. A lower percentage indicates more intrinsic ventricular events and a lower amount of unnecessary RV pacing.
Percentage of Atrial Pacing to Ventricular Sensing (%AR)
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the percentage of Atrial Pacing to Ventricular Sensing (%AR) between VIP On and VIP Off. A higher percentage indicates more intrinsic ventricular events and a lower amount of unnecessary RV pacing.
Percentage of Atrial Pacing to Ventricular Pacing (%AV)
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the percentage of Atrial Pacing to Ventricular Pacing (%AV) between VIP On and VIP Off. A lower percentage indicates more intrinsic ventricular events and a lower amount of unnecessary RV pacing.
Percentage of Patients Experiencing a Study-Related Adverse Event
This outcome measure evaluated the incidence of study-related adverse events between VIP On and VIP Off.
Number of Auto Mode Switch Events
This outcome measure evaluated the difference in the number of auto mode switch events between VIP On and VIP Off.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the VIP™ feature (available in dual chamber Victory® devices) to reduce unnecessary RV pacing, and to determine if patients with implanted SJM pacemakers will benefit by using VIP™ rather than only a programmed AV/PV delay.
