Why the study?
Does a novel prototype lead for a fetal pacemaker allow for successful deployment and ventricular capture in a direct pacing model?
Does a novel prototype lead for a fetal pacemaker allow for successful deployment and ventricular capture in a direct pacing model?
A novel prototype lead for a fetal pacemaker demonstrated successful deployment and ventricular capture in a proof-of-concept model, representing a step toward in utero pacing for complete heart block.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Demonstrates prototype lead feasibility and capture in animal model; leaves open translation to human fetal complete heart block.
Dell’Orfano et al. (2003) studied this question.
