The purpose of this study is to examine whether RV (right ventricular)septal pacing has any effect on LV ( left ventricular) function than RV apical pacing in patients who require ventricular pacing.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of RV pacing site on LV systolic function as measured by LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction).
Secondary objectives of this trial include:
