The second generation of transcatheter pacing systems, called Micra AV, can provide atrio-ventricular (AV) synchronous pacing via a new pacing algorithm relying on sensing mechanical atrial contraction. Several novel programming parameters were introduced to enable AV synchronous pacing, including an A3 and A4 window as well as a conduction and an activity mode switch. In addition to several automated features, manual programming optimization of some of the novel parameters is key to improving AV synchrony...
