Title / Titel	Efficacy of structured pacemaker follow-up in paediatric patients
PDF	Abstract (PDF, 14 KB)
Summary / Zusammenfassung	There are controversies about the optimal follow-up management to detect malfunctioning pacing systems in children. Some institutes prefer a 3-months, others a 6-12 months interval for follow up. Especially with the new pacemaker generation offering a variety of diagnostic features and automatic output adjustments the idea of transtelephonical interrogation was raised. Aim of the study is, to compare outpatient events in children with AutoCapture® or conventionally programmed devices.
