This trial is for cardiac electrophysiologists working at three Veterans Integrated Service Networks who implant pacemakers or ICDs in veterans. Participants must be willing to join the study.
What is being tested?
The study tests whether a strategy of academic detailing and audit and feedback can influence the choice of pacemaker or ICD lead models used by doctors in veteran patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on an educational intervention for physicians rather than direct patient treatment, there are no direct side effects associated with it.
