Scientific titleTUGENDHAT Study
Study acronymTUGENDHAT
Study objectivesAim of this study is to compare standard AV sequential pacing versus biventricular pacing in the patients with conventional indication for permanent heart pacing (primary bradycardia indication) accompanied by documented left ventricular dysfunction.
Ethics approval(s)Homolce Hospital Ethics Committee, 12 June 2008, ref: IBA-KS-2008-01 - Tugendhat
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedAV block, Sick Sinus Syndrome - Bradycardia form
Intervention1. The study contains 120 patients randomized into right ventricular and biventricular pacing group with cross-over switch of pacing modes after six months
2. Standard descriptive statistics will be used for the analysis, continuous paremeters as age, weight, body mass index were described by median and fifth and ninety-fifth percentile, occurence of categorical parameters was described by their count and percentages.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Electrocardiographic parameters (ECG)
2. Echocardiographic parameters (LV Ejection Fraction)
3. Evaluation of NYHA class
4. Evaluation of Quality of Live (Minnesota Living with Heart Failure questionnaire)
Secondary outcome measuresAtrial Fibrillation burden hospitalization for Heart Failure complication of pacing
