“…[11][12][13] The economic impact of the longevity gain has also been well described. 2 As previously described in several studies, [14][15][16][17][18][19] reprogramming significantly enhances the generator unit life span. The main device parameters affecting device longevity were reported as being the pacing output and the amount of ventricular pacing, which may be impacted by the autothreshold functioning, the programmed pacing rate or the mode for ventricular pacing minimization.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
