| I | Permanent pacemaker implantation is indicated in channelopathy patients with pause-dependent, clinically significant VT; ICD implantation may be considered as a reasonable alternative. | C-LD | [40] |
| IIb | Permanent pacemaker implantation may be considered as adjunctive therapy in patients with long QT syndrome and functional 2:1 AV block. | C-LD | [41] |
| IIb | Permanent pacemaker implantation may be considered as adjunctive therapy in patients with long QT syndrome or other channelopathies where a faster heart rate may decrease the arrhythmia burden or symptoms due to bradycardia. | C-LD | [42] |
| IIINo benefit | Atrial pacing alone is not indicated in patients with complete atrial standstill due to the high potential for noncapture of the myocardium. | C-LD |
