Dual-chamber pacing beats single-chamber pacing for sick sinus syndrome in DANPACE

Dual-chamber pacing results in fewer new surgeries and less AF than single-chamber pacing in patients with sick sinus syndrome in the DANPACE trial.

Stockholm, Sweden - Investigators for the DANPACE randomized trial conclude their study shows that sick sinus syndrome patients should never be treated with single-chamber pacing. But others, reacting to the authors' conclusions, say the study does not prove that single-chamber pacing has no role in treating sinus-node dysfunction.

Results from the five-year 1400-patient randomized trial were presented by Dr Jens Cosedis Nielsen (Aarhus University Hospital, Skejby, Denmark) here at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2010 Congress.
