A Blended Sensor Restores Chronotropic Response More Favorably than an Accelerometer Alone in Pacemaker Patients: The LIFE Study Results

Abstract

In this general pacemaker population with CI, a BS programmed empirically restores CR more favorably than an XL sensor programmed nominally. Further studies are needed to determine if individual sensor optimization would lead to improvement in functional capacity, higher MCR slopes, and QOL.
