Reduce Ventricular Pacing Using Ventricular Intrinsic Preference: VIP™ Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the VIP™ feature (available in dual
chamber Victory® devices) to reduce unnecessary RV pacing, and to determine if patients with
implanted SJM pacemakers will benefit by using VIP™ rather than only a programmed AV/PV
delay.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Patient has been implanted with dual chamber SJM Victory® device with VIP™ for 1 month
(± 2 weeks).

- At the time of pacemaker implant, VIP™ is programmed "OFF".

- At the time of enrollment, patient is paced in the RV ≤ 60% of the time.

- Patient is medically stable.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patient has evidence of complete AV block, such that ventricular pacing would be
required as part of the patient's routine management.

- Patient is indicated for AF Suppression.

- Patient has persistent or chronic atrial fibrillation.

- Patient is unable to comply with the follow-up visits due to geographical,
psychological, or any other reasons.

- Patient is currently participating in another device research study.

- Patient is younger than 18 years of age.

- Patient is pregnant.

- Patients life expectancy is less than 12 months.
