Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Follow-up strategy for patients implanted with a pacemaker.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study seeks to verify that a follow-up strategy for patients implanted with a mono- or double-chamber pacemaker, stimuli-dependent or not, for 2 years, by means of data transmissions of the devices by Carelink Express during the usual consultations with the treating cardiologist significantly reduces the number of unnecessary consultations in the implant centers (without any change in treatment or pacemaker programming) compared to the usual follow-up mode recommended for this type of device.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Active Group

A single visit 1 to 3 months after implantation then followed by the attending cardiologist.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Follow-up by Carelink express

Intervention Type DEVICE

Followed by the cardiologist exclusively using Carelink Express during the study period: a single visit 1 to 3 months after implantation, then followed by the cardiologist and interrogation of the stimulator by Carelink Express

Control Group

A first visit 1 to 3 months after implantation and then every 6 months or every year according to the recommendations of pacemaker follow-up (ie 2 or 4 systematic visits during the follow-up of 2 years).

Group Type OTHER

Follow-up according to the usual recommendations

Intervention Type OTHER

According to follow-up recommendations for pacemakers, a visit is planned every 6 months if the patient is dependent on the stimulator (either visits to M6, M12, M18 and M24) or annually if the patient is not dependent on the stimulator (visits to M12 and M24).
