Key result
Inserting atrial and ventricular leads together through a single #14 French subclavian introducer was easy, reliable, and free of complications in 36 patients undergoing AV sequential pacing.
Why the study?
Does inserting two leads through one introducer provide a safe and reliable technique for A-V sequential pacing system implantation?
Does inserting two leads through one introducer provide a safe and reliable technique for A-V sequential pacing system implantation?
Inserting both atrial and ventricular leads through a single #14 French sub-clavian introducer is a feasible and safe technique for A-V sequential pacemaker implantation.

May support single-access dual-lead AV pacing; leaves open comparative safety versus standard techniques in prospective studies.
Thirty‐six (36) consecutive patients underwent implantation of transvenous atrioventricular sequential pacing systems by inserting the atrial and ventricular leads together through one #14 French sub‐clavian introducer. This technique has been easy, reliable and free of complications. (PACE, Vol. 5, March‐April, 1982)
