YABEK, S.M., ET AL.: Rate-Adaptive Cardiac Pacing in Children Using a Minute Ventilation Biosensor. Chronotropic integrity is required for a normal cardiac output response to exercise. We evaluated a rate-adaptive ventricular demand pacemaker (Telectronics, META-MV) which uses minute ventilation as the sensed physiological variable for adjusting pacing rate, in seven young patients with a mean age of 11.4 years. All patients had clinically significant bradycardia related to complete heart block (n = 4) or sinus node dysfunction (n = 3). For the entire group, paced heart rates increased from 70 ± 10 beats/min to 151 ± 19 beats/min with exercise testing. The onset of rate adaptation took < 30 seconds. Changes in paced rate were linearly related to workload, VO2 (5.9 to 20.7 mL/min/kg) and minute ventilation (8–65 L/min). The decline in pacing rate after exercise was related directly to the gradual decrease in minute ventilation and VO2 . Our data show that minute ventilation closely and accurately reflects the metabolic demands of varying workloads in children and can be used to achieve physiological, rate-adaptive pacing. 相似文献

Effects of Chronotropic Responsive Cardiac Pacing on Ventilatory Response to Exercise in Patients with Complete AV Block 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
MASANAO TANI AKIRA FUJIKI HIDETSUGU ASANOI SHIGEKI YOSHIDA HIROSHI TSUJI KOICHI MIZUMAKI SHIGETAKE SASAYAMA 《Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE》1992,15(10):1482-1491
To identify the effect of chronotropic responsive cardiac pacing on the ventilatory response to exercise, ten selected patients with complete atrioventricular block underwent paired cardiopulmonary exercise tests in fixed rate ventricular (WI) and dual chamber (DDD) or rate responsive ventricular (VVIR) pacing modes. Compared to VVI pacing, DDD or VVIR pacing increased peak oxygen uptake (P < 0.005) and augmented anaerobic threshold (P < 0.001), In eight patients, dyspnea was the major symptom limiting exercise with VAT pacing and this was markedly attenuated with DDD or VVIR pacing. In all patients, ventilation (VE) and the ratio of ventilation to CO2 production (VE/VCO2 ) were consistently higher with VVI pacing during exercise. To compare the response of the two pacing modes at the same workloads in an aerobic condition, we measured ventilatory variables 1 minute prior to the anaerobic threshold obtained with VVI pacing. When DDD or VVIR pacing was compared with VVI pacing, VE and VE/VCO2 significantly decreased from 20.5 ± 5.3 L/min to 18.3 ± 5.0 L/min (P < 0.005) and from 35.9 ± 5.8 to 31.9 ± 5.0 (P < 0.003), respectively. Respiratory frequency rose significantly more with VVI pacing (P < 0.001) despite an unchanged tidal vohame. Although peak VE did not differ between the two pacing modes, VE/VCO2 at the peak exercise increased significantly more with VVI pacing (P < 0.005). Respiratory frequency also rose more with VVI pacing (P < 0.005) and tidal volume did not change. This study suggests that chronotropic responsive cardiac pacing attenuates the exertional dyspnea by improving the ventilatory response to exercise as well as increasing the cardiac output in patients with complete atrioventricular block. 相似文献

Eighteen patients (11 men and 7 women) with symptomatic second or third degree atrioventricular block underwent implantation of the rate-responsive RS4-SRT pacing system. Exercise tolerance in RS4 mode was compared to that in VVI mode by randomized double-blind treadmill stress testing. Following hospital discharge, HS4 function was assessed by repeat exercise testing and 24-hour Holter monitoring. Difficulty in obtaining satisfactory P-wave amplitudes at implonfation (mean 3.1 ±1.5 mV) resulted in prolonged implantation times (mean 79.4 ± 26.4 minutes). Following implantation, 10 patients (58%) showed a significant ventricular rate response to exercise, seven did not, and one remained in sinus rhythm. For responders, peak ventricular paced rate and double product were significantly greater in RS4 than in VVI mode, being 101.8 ± 5.8 vs. 74.3 ± 0.4 beats per minute and 20.1 ± 2.9 vs. 15.5 ± 3.7 beats per minute ± mmHg ± 10−3 , respectively (p < 0.001). However, treadmill times (10.5 ± 2.6 vs. 9.7 ± 3.3 minutes) and work done (5.51 ± 2.01 vs. 4.97 ± 2.33 joules ± 10−5 ) were not significantly different (p = 0.22). Following hospital discharge, repeat exercise testing and 24-hour Holter monitoring demonstrated RS4 junction in 11 of 16 and 15 of 18 patients, respectively. We conclude that, due to unreliable atrial sensing, the RS4-SRT pacing system does not provide the reliable rate-responsiveness required to improve exercise tolerance. 相似文献

Failure of Rate Responsive Ventricular Pacing to Improve Physiological Performance in the Univentricular Heart 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The physiological efficacy of single chamber, rate responsive ventricular pacing (VVIR) is unknown for symptomatic patients following the Fontan procedure for univentricular hearts. A total of six postoperative children, ages 6–21 years (mean 13), with symptomatic bradycardia requiring pacing therapy, underwent comparative treadmill exercise testing in randomized fixed rate (VVI) and VVIR pacing modes. In all instances, implanted activity pulse generators (Medtronic Model 8403) were programmed to identical age-appropriate low paced rates during WI and VVIR modes with the upper rate response at 150 ppm. All studies were performed at least 2 weeks apart. Physiological values of heart rate, blood pressure, work rate (watts), oxygen comsumption (VO2 ), carbon dioxide production (VCO2 ), and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) were monitored continuously during each test using a 1 minute incremental treadmill protocol. Ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT) was calculated from VO2 , VCO2 , and minute ventilation. The results demonstrated that although there was a significant increase in paced heart rate per minute throughout exercise (P < 0.01) with VVIR pacing, maximum watts, VO2 , and VAT remained unchanged. These findings indicate that in spite of an improved chronotropic response to exercise, children with Univentricular hearts following the Fontan procedure continue to demonstrate altered hemodynamics which negate potential benefits of VVIR pacing. 相似文献

AAIR Versus DDDR Pacing in Patients with Impaired Sinus Node Chronotropy: An Echocardiographic and Cardiopulmonary Study 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
P.E. VARDAS E.N. SIMANTIRAKIS F.I. PARTHENAKIS S.I. CHRYSOSTOMAKIS E.I. SKALIDIS E.G. ZURIDAKIS 《Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE》1997,20(7):1762-1768
The aim of this study was to compare AAIR and DDDR pacing at rest and during exercise. We studied 15 patients (10 men, age 65 ± 6 years) who had been paced for at least 3 months with activity sensor rate modulated dual chamber pacemakers. All had sick sinus syndrome (SSS) with impaired sinus node chronotropy. The patients underwent a resting echocardiographic evaluation of systolic and diastolic LV function at 60 beats/min during AAIR and DDDR pacing with an AV delay, which ensured complete ventricular activation capture. Cardiac output (CO) was also measured during pacing at 100 beats/min in both pacing modes. Subsequently, the oxygen consumption (VO2 at) and VO2 at pulse at the anaerobic threshold were measured during exercise in AAIR mode and in DDDR mode with an AV delay of 120 ms. The indices of diastolic function showed no significant differences between the two pacing modes, except for patients with a stimulus-R interval > 220 ms, for whom the time velocity integral of LV filling and LV inflow time were significantly lower under AAI than under DDD pacing. At 60 beats/min, CO was higher under AAI than under DDD mode only when the stimulus-R interval was below 220 ms. For stimulus-R intervals longer than 220 ms, and also during pacing at 100 beats/min, the CO was higher in DDD mode. The stimulus-R interval decreased in all patients during exercise. The time to anaerobic threshold, VO2 at ond VO2 at pulse showed no significant differences between the two pacing modes. Our results indicate that, at rest, although AAIR pacing does not improve diastolic function in patients with SSS, it maintains a higher CO than does DDDR pacing in cases where the stimulus-R interval is not excessively prolonged. On exertion, the two pacing modes appear to be equally effective, at least in cases where the stimulus-R interval decreases in AAIR mode. 相似文献

Our objective was to determint; the adequate pacing rate during exercise in ventricular pacing by measuring exercise capacity, cardiac output, and sinus node activity. Eighteen patients with complete AV block and an implanted pacemaker underwent cardiopulmonary exercise tests under three randomized pacing rates: fixed rate pacing (VVJ) at 60 beats/min and ventricular rate-responsive pacing (VVIR) programmed to attain a heart rate of about 110 beats/min ar 130 beats/min (VVIR 110 and VVIR 130, respectively) at the end of exercise. Compared with VVI and VVIR 130, VVIR 110 was associated with an increased peak oxygen uptake(VVIR 110:20.3 ± 4.5 vs VVI: 16.9 ± 3.1; P < 0.01; and VVIR 130: 19.0 ± 4.1 mL/min per kg, respectively; P < 0.05) and a higher oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold (15.3 ± 2.7, 12.7 ± 1.9; P < 0.01, and 14.6 ± 2.6 mL/min per kg; P < 0.05). The atrial rate during exercise expressed as a percentage of the expected maximal heart rate was lower in VVIR 110 than in VVI or VVIR 130 (VVIR 110: 75.9%± 14.6% vs VVI: 90.6%± 12.8%; P < 0.01; VVIR 110 vs VVIR 130: 89.1%± 23.1%; P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in cardiac output at peak exercise between VVIR 110 and VVIR 130. We conclude that a pacing rate for submaximal exercise of 110 beats/min may be preferable to that of 130 beats/min in respect to exercise capacity and sympathetic nerve activity. 相似文献

This study examined the acute and long-term effects of DDD pacing on ergospirometric parameters and neurohormonal activity in patients with hypertrophic obstructive Cardiomyopathy (HOCM). We studied eight patients (five males), aged 56 ± 7 years, with HOCM refractory to drugs. In all patients a DDD pacemaker was implanted and programmed with an atrioventricular (AV) delay that insured full ventricular activation. The patients underwent echocardiographic examination and exercise stress testing before and 3 days, 3 months, and 12 months after pacemaker implantation. Oxygen consumption was measured at the anaerobic threshold (VO2AT ) and peak exercise (pVO2 ). Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (c-AMP) levels were measured concomitantly. Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) pressure gradient decreased significantly from 70 ± 18 to 25 ± 12 mmHg (P < 0.05) 3 days after pacing and remained unchanged at 3 and 12 months. pVO2 and VO2AT increased significantly, from 20.1 ± 3 to 23.4 ± 3 mL/kg/min and from 16 ± 3 to 17.8 ± 2 mL/kg/min, respectively (P < 0.05). This improvement continued up to 3 months, and then remained stable until the end of the 12-month follow-up period. ANP levels decreased at 3 days from 85.4 ± 5.7 to 75.4 ± 7.3 fmol/mL (P < 0.05), and remained unchanged over the 12 months. c-AMP levels did not change significantly after the onset of pacing. DDD pacing in patients with HOCM not only reduces the LVOT pressure gradient but also causes a significant early and long-term improvement in exercise capacity and neurohormonal profile. 相似文献

COOK, L., et al. : Impact of Adaptive Rate Pacing Controlled by a Right Ventricular Impedance Sensor on Cardiac Output in Response to Exercise. This study examined the effects of adaptive rate pacing controlled by closed-loop right ventricular impedance sensing on exercise hemodynamics. Twelve patients in whom Biotronik INOS2+ pacemakers had been implanted 4–6 weeks earlier participated in the study. All patients completed two graded, symptom-limited exercise tests. The pacemaker was programmed to DDDR with an upper rate limit of 75–85% of the age-predicted maximum heart rate and a lower rate limit of 45–60 ppm. Heart rate was recorded continuously. An average of 5 beats during the last 10 seconds of each exercise stage was used in the analysis. Oxygen uptake (VO2 ) was measured using open circuit spirometry. The VO2 values from the final 15 seconds of each exercise stage were used for analysis. Stroke volume and cardiac output were measured during the last minute of each stage using impedance cardiography. The test-retest reliability of heart rate and cardiac output responses to graded exercise was assessed using repeated measures analysis of variance, for which the reliability coefficients were r = 0.993 and r = 0.954, respectively (P < 0.01). There were significant correlations (P < 0.01) between VO2 and heart rate and between VO2 and cardiac output, with correlation coefficients of r = 0.907 and r = 0.824, respectively. This method of adaptive rate pacing produced reliable, positive hemodynamic responses to graded exercise on a test-retest basis. (PACE 2003; 26:[Pt. II]:244–247) 相似文献

The physiological benefits of activity sensing rate responsive ventricular pacing)VVIR) over fixed rate pacing)VVI) were investigated in 14 children during incremenlal cycle exercise. Based on their heart rhythm response during exercise, children were divided into two groups. Group I patients)13 ± 4 years) remained in a paced-only rhythm when exercised. Group II patients)16 ± 7 years) were paced at rest but converted to sinus rhythm with exercise. In Group I patients, the significant physioJogicol benefits of VVIR over VVI pacing were evidenced hy a 51% increase in peak heart rate)HRmax) and a 16% increase in exercise duration and maximum oxygen uptake)VO2 max). Additionally, a 27% reduction in peak oxygen pulse)O2 Pmax) was found, reflecting a similar decrease in stroke volume. The cardiorespiraiory responses of Group I and 11 patients were compared in terms of percent of predicted normal values. Although Group I patients in the VVIR mode attained a better exercise performance than in the VVI mode and a normal O2 Pmax)108% pred). their HRmax)62% pred) and VO2 max)70% pred) fell far below normal values. In comparison. Group II patients, who went into sinus rhythm, achieved normal values for HRmax)84% pred), VO2 max)90% pred), and O2 Pmax)97% pred). The higher pacing rates attained by Group I patients in the VVIR mode may have allowed them to reach not only a higher cardiac output but also a more normal stroke volume at peak exercise than in the VVI mode. However, the overall exercise performance of children paced in the VVI and VVIR modes were significantly diminished compared to the performance of children who went into sinus rhythm with exercise.) 相似文献

Clinical Comparison of Acute Single to Dual Chamber Pacing in Chronotropically Incompetent Patients with Left Ventricular Dysfunction 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Dual chamber, rate responsive (DDDR) pacing is felt to be superior to ventricular, rate responsive (VVIR) pacing since it more closely mimics the normal electrical and hemodynamic activity of the heart. This reasoning has been used to justify the higher initial costs and increased complexity of dual chamber systems. This study was designed to determine if objective criteria could be identified during acute testing to justify implanting a dual chamber instead of a single chamber system in patients with left ventricular dysfunction. Eight patients with DDDR pacemakers (implanted for chronotropic incompetence) and left ventricular dysfunction underwent exercise radionuclide angiography and graded exercise treadmill testing. Each patient performed the tests in the single (VVIR) and dual (DDDR) chamber modes in a randomized, blinded fashion. We found that objective parameters such as ejection fraction (31%± 13% vs 31%± 10%), exercise tolerance (6.1 ± 2.7 min vs 6.3 ± 2.9 min), oxygen consumption (VO2 ) (941 ± 286 mL/min vs 994 ± 314 mL/min), carbon dioxide production (VCO2 ) (995 ± 332 mL/min vs 1054 ± 356 mL/min), and maximum attainable workload (43 ± 24 W vs 46 ± 22 W) did not differ between the single and dual chamber pacing modes. These findings suggest that in the acute setting, the additional cost and complexity of dual chamber, rate responsive pacing cannot be justified by objective improvements in exercise tolerance in patients with underlying left ventricular dysfunction. 相似文献

The hemodynamic effects of two different pacing modes—rate adaptive atrial (AAIR) versus dual chamber (DDDR) pacing—were assessed in 12 patients with DDDR pacemakers during upright bicycle exercise first-pass radionuclide angiography using a multiwire gamma camera with tantalum-178 as a tracer. All patients had sinus node disease with intact AV conduction. Patients exercised to the same heart rate in random order in these two different pacing modes, AAIR and DDDR with AV delay (of 100 msec) selected to maintain 100% ventricular capture. Cardiac output in creased significantly above baseline values during exercise in both pacing modes: 154 ± 41% (mean ± SEM, P = 0.002) with AAIR, versus 95 ± 24% (P = 0.004) with DDDR (P = NS between the two modes). The peak filling rate, likewise, increased in both pacing modes (2.3 ± 0.21 end-diastolic volumes/sec to 3.8 ± 0.31 end-diastolic volumes/sec in AAIR [P = 0.0004] and 2.2 ± 0.18 end-diastolic volumes/sec to 3.4 ± 0.27 end-diastolic volumes/sec in DDDR [P = 0.0008]). LV ejection fraction was normal at rest (60 ± 4%, SEM) and did not significantly change with submaximal exercise in either pacing mode (both 56%, P = NS). No significant changes in end-diastolic volume or stroke volume indexes occurred with exercise in either pacing mode. Our study demonstrates that in patients with normal resting LV function, AAIR and DDDR pacing are equally effective in attaining appropriate increases in cardiac output and LV filling during exercise. 相似文献

Efficacy of Ventricular Rate Stabilization by Right Ventricular Pacing During Atrial Fibrillation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
CHU-PAK LAU ZU-YI JIANG MING-OI TANG 《Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE》1998,21(3):542-548
To assess the effect of right ventricular pacing on rate regularity during exercise and daily life activities, 16 patients with sinoatrial disease and chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) were studied. Incremental ventricular pacing was commenced at 40 beats/min until > 95% of ventricular pacing were achieved during supine, sitting, and standing. Thirteen patients also underwent randomized paired submaximal exercise tests in either a fixed rate mode (VVI) or a ventricular rate stabilization (VRS) mode in which the pacingrate was set manually at 10 beats/min above the average AF rate duringthe last minute of each exercise stage. The pacing interval for rate regularization was shortest during standing (692 ± 26 ms) compared with either supine or sitting (757 ± 30 and 705 ± 26 ms, respectively, P < 0.05). During exercise, VRS pacing significantly increased the maximum rate (119 ± 5.2 vs 106 ± 4.2 ms, P < 0.05), percent of ventricular pacing (85%± 5% vs 23%± 7%, P < 0.05), rate regularity index (5.8%± 1.6% vs 13.4%± 1.9%, P < 0.05), and maximum level of oxygen consumption (12.4 ± 0.5 vs 11.3 ± 0.5 ml/kg, P < 0.05) compared with VVI pacing. There was no change in oxygen pulse or difference in symptom scores in this acute study between the two pacing modes. It is concluded that right ventricular pacing may significantly improve rate regularity and cardiopulmonary performance in patients with chronic AF. This may be incorporated in a pacing device for rate regularization of AF using an algorithm that is rate adaptive to postural and exercise stresses. 相似文献

Correlation of the Heart Rate-Minute Ventilation Relationship with Clinical Data: Relevance to Rate-Adaptive Pacing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
LUC P. SOUCIE CLARE CAREY A. KIRSTEN WOODEND ANTHONY S.L. TANG 《Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE》1997,20(8):1913-1918
The heart rate (HR)-minute ventilation (VE) relationship has been shown to be nonlinear and can be expressed as two distinct straight lines. This study is to assess the correlation of the initial HR-VE slope to clinical parameters. Maximum treadmill exercise tests were performed in 100 healthy volunteers (age 19–77 years) using a ramp protocol in which work-rate increases linearly with exercise. Breath-by-breath VO2 , VCO2 , and VE were measured, and HR and RP were monitored throughout the exercise. The HR-VE curve demonstrated nonlinearity with a breakpoint determined by a change point analysis. This breakpoint was significantly higher than that of the anaerobic threshold. The VEat the HB-VE breakpoint was 56.4 ± 19.4 and VE at the VE-VO2 and VCO2 -VO2 breakpoints were 48.0 ± 18.3 (P < 0.0001) arid 40.1 ± 16.5 (P < 0.0001). respectively. TheHR at this HR-VE breakpoint was 77.7 ± 12.9% of the HR range. The first slope. Si (1.76 ± 0.64) was steeper than the second slope, S2 (0.66 ± 0.39). Although there was a gender difference for S1, the best clinical predictor on a stepwise multiple regression analysis was body surface area (BSA) which explained 47% of the variance. It was concluded that nonlinearity of the HR-VE curve can be expressed as two straight lines. The breakpoint is beyond the anaerobic threshold and can be estimated to be approximately 75% of the maximal predicted HR. RSA is the only clinical parameter that significantly predicts the initial slope of the HR-VE curve. This can be of great importance in the programming of rate-adaptive pacemakers using a VE. 相似文献

Objectives: To assess in patients with chronic heart failure the effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) over 12 months' follow-up the time course of the changes in functional and neurohormonal indices and to identify responders to CRT.
Methods: Eighty-nine patients (74.1 ± 1 years, left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] < 35%), QRS complex duration >150 ms, in stable New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV on optimal medical treatment were prospectively randomized either in a control (n = 45) or CRT (n = 44) group and underwent clinical evaluation, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), 2D-Echo, heart rate variability (HRV), carotid baroreflex (BRS), and BNP assessments before and at 6- and 12-month follow-up.
Results: In the CRT group, improvement of cardiac indices and BNP concentration were evident at medium term (over 6 months) follow-up, and these changes persisted on a longer term (12 months) (all P < 0.05). Instead CPET indices and NYHA class improved after 12 months associated with restoration of HRV and BRS (all P < 0.05). We identified 26 responders to CRT according to changes in LVEF and diameters. Responders presented less depressed hemodynamic (LVEF 25 ± 1.0 vs 22 ± 0.1%), functional (peak VO2 10.2 ± 0.2 vs 6.9 ± 0.3 ml/kg/min), and neurohormonal indices (HRV 203.6 ± 15.7 vs 147.6 ± 10.ms, BRS 4.9 ± 0.2 vs 3.6 ± 0.3 ms/mmHg) (all P < 0.05). In the multivariate analysis, peak VO2 was the strongest predictor of responders.
Conclusions: Improvement in functional status is associated with restoration of neurohormonal reflex control at medium term. Less depressed functional status (peak VO2 ) was the strongest predictor of responders to CRT. 相似文献

Benefit of Single Setting Rate Responsive Ventricular Pacing Compared with Fixed Rate Demand Pacing in Elderly Patients 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

In order to assess the value of a simple, single setting rate response option to VVI pacing, 12 patients (mean age 75.1 ± 6,2, range 62–83 years, seven males, five females) with symptomatic complete heart block were entered into a double-blind, randomized crossover trial of VVI versus VVIR (single setting rate responsive) pacing using Medtronic Activitrax pacemakers. Assessment was by time taken in seconds (sec) and Borg scale symptom score (6–20) for simple activities (standing from chair x 30; walking 800 meters; 52 steps on stairs [slow and fast pace], and incremental, noninclined maximal treadmill exercise), performed after a 4-week period with the patient in each pacing mode. Times were significantly improved in VVIR mode for standing from chair [mean ± SD] (78.7 ± 22.5 vs 70.7 ± 19.5 sec; P < 0.05), for 800 m walk (1032 ± 80 vs 885 ± 59 sec; P < 0.05), fast ascent of stairs (29.5 ± 7.7 vs 26.5 ± 5.6 sec; P < 0.02), and treadmill exercise (626.7 ± 189.5 vs 741.0 ± 170.2 sec, P < 0.005) although no difference in time for slow stair ascent was demonstrated. Symptom scores were significantly less in VVIR for standing from chair (12.7 ± 2.8 vs 10.3 ± 1.8; P < 0.01), 800 m walk (10.9 ± 2.7 vs 9.0 ± 2.4; P < 0.01), slow ascent of stairs (11.6 ± 2.1 vs 10.0 ± 2.0; P < 0.01), and fast ascent of stairs (13.0 ± 2.0 vs 11.7 ± 1.9; P < 0.02) but unchanged for treadmill exercise. Single setting VVIR pacing increases maximum exercise capacity and decreases perceived difficulty of submaximal exercise in elderly patients with symptomatic heart block. This would be a beneficial addition to most limited and multiprogrammable VVI systems for use in the elderly. 相似文献

Aerobic Capacity in Rate Modulated Pacing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Whether heart rate or AV synchrony is the most important factor for an increase in aerobic capacity was evaluated in a comparative study between sinus bradycardia, VVIR, DDD, and DDDR stimulation. Sixteen patients (mean age 67 years) with chronotropic incompetence and impJanted DDDR pacemaker (Telectronics META 1250) were randomly studied by cardiopulmonary exercise testing. All patients were exercised to their anaerobic threshold (ATJ with the following heart rates: DDD 84 ± 3, WIR 110 ± 5, and DDDR 116 ± 6 beats/min. Mean oxygen uptake (VO2 , mL/kg per min) at AT was 7.4 ± 0.3 in DDD and WIR modes. A 12% increase was measured in DDDR mode (8.3 ± 0.4). Compared to VVIR work capacity in the DDDR mode was improved by 17% (41 vs 48 W/min). In patients with isolated sinus node disease (n = 9) the increase of VO2 and work capacity at AT during DDDR mode was more pronounced (16% and 20%, respectively, compared to VVIR). In patients with intermittent second or third degree AV block (n = 7) the differences between the pacing modes were not significant. This might partly be due to a lesser degree of chronotropic incompetence in this subgroup. In conclusion only the conjunction of heart rate increase and preservation of AV synchrony provides a significant improvement in aerobic capacity during exercise. 相似文献

The Importance of Different Atrioventricular Delay for Left Ventricular Filling in Sequential Pacing: Clinical Implications 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We assessed the influence and clinical consequences of different AV delay on ventricular filling in 30 patients (mean age 60 ± 5 years) who had ODD pacemakers for AV block. All 30 patients presented a normal ejection fraction, but in 18 cases (Group I), an echo-Doppler examination revealed ventricular hypertrophy (mean end-diastolic wall thickness of 1.4 ± 0.16 cm. LV mass index 155 ± 17g/m2 ), and an abnormal relaxation pattern (isovoiumetric relaxation time = 124.72 ± 11.82; early to late peak velocity = 0.6 ± 0.03; deceleration time - 296.83 ± 34.02 ms). Group II included the remaining 12 patients who had a normal filling pattern. In all 30 patients, the pattern was reassessed following modification of the AV delay (200, 150, 100. and 75 ms). Patients at baseline (AV delay of 200 ms) also underwent an exercise test with determination of respiratory gas exchange. In Group I, 13 (72.5%) patients were classified as Weber class B (VO2 Max 16.8 ± 1.7mL/min per kg); and 5 (27.5%) were Class A (VO2 Max 22.5 ± 1.4 mL/min per kg). In Group II, all 12 patients were classified as Weber Class A. In Group II, changes in AV delay caused no consistent variations in filling pattern, and therefore AV delay was not modified. In Group I patients, since reduction to 100 ms resulted in normalization of the filling pattern, the AV delay was programmed to 100 ms. A graded exercise test repeated after 6 months follow-up showed an improved Weber class in 13 patients (from B to A) and greater VO2 Max in the remaining five already in Class A. We concluded that, in sequential paced patients with normal ejection fraction but abnormal relaxation pattern, modification in AV delay can induce normalization of filling and improvement in cardiac functional capacity. 相似文献

Hemodynamic Benefits of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Pacing: Comparison with Right Ventricular Apex Pacing 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

To assess optimal hemodynamics in relation to stimulation site during right ventricular pacing, 17 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac catheterization were studied. In all patients, right ventricular apex and right ventricular outflow tract stimulation was performed at 85, 100, and 120 beats/min. Cardiac index at both pacing sites was compared using the left ventricular outflow tract continuous wave Doppler technique. Comparison of the two stimulation sites demonstrated that right ventricular outflow tract pacing resulted in a higher cardiac index at 85 beats/min (2.42 ± 1.2 vs 2.04 ±1.0 L/min per m2 , P < 0.002) at 100 beats/min (2.78 ± 1.4 vs 2.35 ± 1.1 L/min perm2 , P < 0.001) and 120 beats/min (3.00 ± 1.5 vs 2.61 ± 0.9 L/min perm2 , P < 0.001). From a total of 51 paired observations, 45 showed an increase in cardiac index during outflow tract pacing as compared to apex pacing. Right ventricular outflow tract pacing at 120 beats/min resulted in a lower cardiac index than right ventricular apex pacing in patients with significant coronary artery disease and/or impaired left ventricular function (ejection fraction ≤ 50%), whereas right ventricular outflow tract pacing produced higher cardiac indices in the absence of these abnormalities. Right ventricular outflow tract pacing resulted in higher cardiac indices as compared to apex pacing in all other subgroups at all other pacing sites tested. It is concluded that stimulation of the right ventricular outflow tract offers a significant hemodynamic benefit during single chamber pacing as compared to conventional apex pacing, particularly in the absence of significant coronary artery disease and/or left ventricular dysfunction. 相似文献

Rate adaptive ventricular pacemakers using central venous oxygen saturation (O2 Sat) to control the pacing rate have been implanted in 14 patients (mean age 71 years), with a mean follow-up period of 44 months (range 2–63 months). In eight patients the pacemakers were replaced due to signs of battery depletion after an implant duration of 39–58 months. During bicycle exercise testing the O2 Sat decreased on average from 61%± 4% at rest to 36%± 4% (P < 0,0001) at peak exercise, and the maximum pacing rate was 122 ± 5 beats/min. The time delay until the O2 Sat bad dropped 10%, 65%, and 90% of the total reduction during exercise was 4.8 ± 0.9 seconds, 39.8 ± 3.8 seconds, and 71.3 ± 7.5 seconds, respectively. The O2 Sat decreased 9.4%± 2% (P <0.005) from resting supine to resting sitting. Oxygen breathing increased the telemetered O2 Sat from the pacemaker by 8.4 %± 1 % (P < 0.001). During follow-up the O2 Sats were relatively stable in 50% of the patients, but demonstrated significant fluctuations in the others. At 1-year invasive follow-up O2 Sat measured by the pacemaker decreased 22%± 2%, and in blood samples from the right ventricle 22%± 2% from rest to 3 minutes exercise at 25 watts. There was a significant correlation between O2 Sat measured by the pacemaker and in blood samples from right ventricle (n = 105; r = 0.73; P < 0.001). In two patients the O2 Sat dropped significantly during pneumonia. In another patient episodes of angina pectoris was associated with low O2 Sat and a concomitant fast pacing rate. 相似文献

Although the beneficial effects of DDD pacing are well known, currently available ICDs provide only fixed rate ventricular antibradycardia pacing. In a consecutive series of 139 patients with ICDs, we have analyzed the need for antibradycardia pacing and the indications for DDD pacing. We also report our initial experience with the Defender 9001 (ELA Medical, France) DDD-ICD. Out of 139 patients, 25 (18%) were in need of antibradycardia pacing. Ten patients already had a pacemaker at the time of ICD implantation and ten other patients had a conventional pacemaker indication at that time. Five patients became pacemaker dependent during a follow-up of 20 ± 8 months. The disorders necessitating pacemaker therapy were high degree AV conduction disturbances in 72%, sick sinus syndrome in 12%, and AF with a slow ventricular response in 16% of patients. Based upon current indications, DDD pacing was indicated in 20 (80%) of 25 patients. The Defender 9001 DDD-ICD (ELA Medical) was used in two patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and pacemaker syndrome with VVI pacing. Cardiac output during DDD pacing increased by 36% in one patient with an increase in VO2 max during exercise of 29%. The other patient showed an increase in cardiac output of 50% with DDD pacing, and, while unable to exercise with VVI pacing, had a VO2max of 24 mL/kg per minute during DDD pacing. Up to 18% of our ICD patients are in need of antibradycardia pacing. Of these pacemaker dependent patients, 80% have an indication for DDD pacing. Our first clinical experience with a DDD-ICD confirms the hemodynamic benefit of AV synchronous pacing in ICD patients with pacemaker syndrome. 相似文献
