Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject must have one of the following clinical indications:

    1. Chronic atrial fibrillation with 2 or 3° AV or bifascicular bundle branch block (BBB block) ; or
    2. Normal sinus rhythm with 2 or 3° AV or BBB block and a low level of physical activity or short expected lifespan (but at least one year); or
    3. Sinus bradycardia with infrequent pauses or unexplained syncope with EP findings; and
  • Subject ≥18 years of age;
