One-Year Outcomes of the MODULAR Antitachycardia Pacing (ATP) Trial: A Novel Leadless Pacemaker in Wireless Communication With a Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
Authors' conclusion
One-year outcomes of the first modular pacing-defibrillator system reveal low system and LP complication rates and good ATP efficacy rates
