Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Treatment
This is an unblinded, treatment only study in which each patient serves as his or her own control.
All patients who meet entry criteria will undergo implantation of the Moderato System. During the first month the pacemaker Performance will be evaluated and an additional 3 month period of treatment for studying the Moderato-HTN therapy effect.
The Moderato System
The BackBeat Moderato System incorporates traditional pacing modes and algorithms to provide pacing support to patients with all conditions currently indicated for dual chamber pacing. In addition, a special pacing algorithm was developed to reduce blood pressure.
