PreFER MVP For Elective Replacement
Scientific title
PreFER MVP For Elective Replacement: Previously paced patients, coming in For Elective Replacement, using MVP (Managed Ventricular Pacing): to demonstrate the benefit of MVP in pacemaker and implantable carvioverter defibrillator (ICD) patients with a history of right ventricular pacing. The MVP function reduces unnecessary right ventricular pacing which has been shown to induce heart failure. Total mortality and heart failure hospitalization will be evaluated.

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Replacement of pacemaker or ICD with a new device featuring MVP. Results after a follow-up period of 2 years with MVP "ON" vs MVP "OFF" will be compared. At the end of the 2 years the doctor will determine which settings are preferred for the patient to be left on.
