What the study is about
People eligible for this study are scheduled to have a permanent pacemaker (PPM) or defibrillator device (ICD) implanted as part of their routine care. This device will also have a wire placed in the right atrium (RA) of the heart. As an alternative to the RA, the wire can also be placed in the Bachmann bundle (BB).
This study is being done to compare two options to help place the wire in the Bachmann bundle. One option uses contrast dye and x-ray, and the other option uses electrocardiogram (ECG) and contrast dye and x-ray. We want to learn more about how well these options work in implanting the wire in the Bachmann bundle.
Both of these options are FDA approved and used in standard practice.
Being studied: Angiography only; Angiography and ECG
Conditions: Heart Diseases
