B-po04-143 safety and feasibility of reactive atrial-based anti-tachycardia pacing algorithm in cardiovascular implantable electronic devices to suppress atrial fibrillation in patients with left atrial appendage closure device
Reactive atrial-based anti-tachycardia pacing (rATP) in CIED (cardiovascular implantable electronic devices) are effective in AF suppression. Uninterrupted systemic anticoagulation is mandated when these algorithms are activated to avoid stroke and systemic thromboembolism. However, the use of rATP algorithm in patients with left atrial appendage (LAA) closure device without ongoing anticoagulation has not been studied.
