About this trial

This is a prospective, randomized controlled (1:1) multicenter trial. The pilot study will be conducted up to three clinical sites in the United States. The primary purpose of this study is to compare the overall safety and efficacy between the leadless pacemaker and left bundle area pacing.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age > 18

permanent pacemaker implantation for AV node disease (first, second or third degree), OR

post-TAVR patient requiring permanent pacemaker implantation

Preserved ejection fraction > 50%

Disqualifiers

Sinus node dysfunction, anticipating atrial pacing or persistent atrial fibrillation

Anatomical restriction for either MICRA or transvenous pacing such as

Access vein occlusion or thrombosis

previous radiation therapy at insertion site
