May support single-pass A-V pacing feasibility; leaves open need for randomized confirmation before wider use.
Does the 'Crown of Thorns' single-pass implantable electrode provide successful physiological pacing in patients requiring pacemakers?
The 'Crown of Thorns' single-pass unipolar lead is effective for long-term physiological pacing using various dual-chamber generators.
Wainwright et al. (1983) studied this question.
