About the episode

ESC 2023 — Dr Mads Brix Kronborg (Aarhus University Hospital, DE) joins us to discuss the findings from the DANPACE II Trial (NCT00236158). 

 

DANPACE II (The DANPACE Investigator Group) trial aimed to compare patients who were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to either a base rate of 60 beats per minute and rate-adaptive DDD (DDDR-60 Group) or a base rate of 40bpm and non-rate adaptive DDD (DDD-40 Group). 539 patients were included in the analysis.

 

After 2 years, the primary endpoint of episodes of atrial fibrillation lasting over 6 minutes detected by the pacemaker had occurred in 248 (46%) of patients. Minimising atrial pacing in patients with sinus node dysfunction did not reduce the incidence of atrial fibrillation. 

 

Questions:

  1. What was the reasoning behind this trial?
  2. What was the patient population and study design?
  3. What were the key findings?
  4. What are your take-home messages?
  5. What further study is still required?

 

Recorded on-site at ESC Congress 2023, Amsterdam.
