Supports atrial loop feasibility for growth accommodation in neonatal endocardial pacing; leaves open need for prospective studies before wider adoption.
Does the use of an atrial loop extend the duration of endocardial pacing in a neonate?
The use of an atrial loop in a neonate undergoing endocardial pacing successfully accommodated growth over 32 months.
Rosenthal et al. (1997) studied this question.
