Post-pacing data (and changes from pre-pacing baseline) are presented as group means ± SEM. Comparisons between groups were performed with unpaired T-tests. For electrocardiographic indices, n = 8 sham and 14 paced; for electrophysiologic data (VERP), n = 5 in each group. VERP, ventricular effective refractory period.
