This multicenter prospective randomized study compared the efficacy of Bachmann's bundle (BB) region pacing to right atrial appendage (RAA) pacing in patients with recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Methods and Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    Patients with standard pacing indications (\n                    <jats:styled-content>n = 120, 70 \u00b1 11 years<\/jats:styled-content>\n                    ) were randomized to atrial pacing in either the RAA (\n                    <jats:styled-content>n = 57<\/jats:styled-content>\n                    ) or BB region (\n                    <jats:styled-content>n = 63<\/jats:styled-content>\n                    ).

No differences in pacing threshold, impedance, or sensing between BB and RAA groups were observed at implantation or after the 6\u2010week, 6\u2010month, and 1\u2010year follow\u2010up periods.
