Ventricular lead impedance, Ω −0.49±2.74 0.86 6.15±12.56 0.63
Atrial capture, V 0.02±0.02 0.28 −0.07±0.18 0.69

Values are reported as mean difference between immediate or long-term and baseline parameter ±SEM. Student t test was not performed on left ventricular lead thresholds in cardiac resynchronization therapy systems because there were not enough data points for a meaningful comparison; there were no significant changes in individual left ventricular lead thresholds after testing, however.
