Reply to comment by Anatomy_Is_Destiny in Georgia doctor implants one of the first wireless, dual chamber pacemakers: New type of pacemaker is safer option than traditional surgery by universityofga

This is the first truly dual chamber model so definitely a big step forward. Micra only is placed in the right ventricle however aveir has 2 components, one for the right atrium one for the right ventricle. This allows for a much larger patient population to be eligible

Yes, my practice has already implanted a few of them thus far. The atrial leadless is not yet FDA approved, but hopefully within the next year.
