48 Do patients notice a difference between different types of implantable loop recorders?

Abstract

prophylactic CRT implantation in patients with preserved LV was addressed in the BIOPACE trial, however these results were not formally published and controversy still exists about the type of device to implant in patients with near normal LV function. 3 Our study describes the variability in our clinical practice given the split in PPM vs CRT in patients with near normal LV function. The increased age and mortality trend in the PPM group may reflect an increased frailty or co-morbidity compared with the CRT group. However, long term clinical outcomes are required in order to provide clarity on this important clinical decision.
