L120SR electrode use was associated with fewer displacements; leaves open optimal selection in permanent pacing pending randomized trials.
Does the Devices L120SR electrode reduce the rate of electrode displacement compared to the Devices S120 electrode in patients with a permanent endocardial pacing system?
The design and mechanical characteristics of endocardial pacing electrodes significantly impact the rate of displacement, with the Devices L120SR demonstrating a markedly lower displacement rate than the S120.
