We report a case of fully transvenous single-unit biventricular implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) use in a 43-year-old woman with a manifesting carrier form of muscular dystrophy (Emery-Dreifuss syndrome). The indication for biventricular ICD use was progressive heart failure with ventricular arrhythmia, permanent atrial fibrillation and previous VVIR pacemaker insertion. Single-unit transvenous biventricular ICD implantation was undertaken without complication. No potentially serious device malfunction was noted during subsequent follow-up. We conclude that single-unit biventricular ICD implantation is feasible for pacing and ventricular tachyarrhythmia control in patients with underlying atrial fibrillation. 相似文献

Biventricular pacing has been introduced to treat patients with end-stage heart failure, and short-term results of this technique are promising. Because data on longer follow-up are limited to 3-month follow-up, the sustained effect of biventricular pacing is unclear and long-term survival is unknown. Forty patients with end-stage heart failure in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III or IV with left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) <35%, QRS duration >120 ms, and left bundle branch block morphology received a biventricular pacemaker. At baseline, and at 3 and 6 months after implantation, the following parameters were evaluated: NYHA class, Minnesota quality-of-life score, QRS duration on surface electrocardiogram, 6-minute walking distance, and LVEF. Long-term follow-up was obtained for up to 2 years. All clinical parameters improved significantly at 3 months and remained unchanged at 6-month follow-up. LVEF increased from 24 +/- 9% to 34 +/- 11%. Before implantation, patients were hospitalized (for congestive heart failure) an average of 3.9 +/- 5.3 days/year compared with 0.5 +/- 1.5 days/year after implantation. Long-term follow-up showed a survival of 87.5% at 2 years. Thus, biventricular pacing resulted in improvement of symptoms and quality of life, accompanied by improvement in 6-minute walking distance and LVEF. These effects were observed at 3 months after implantation and were maintained at 6-month follow-up. Moreover, 2-year survival was excellent. 相似文献

Eligibility for biventricular pacing in patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)-therapy prevents sudden death in patients at high risk, but incidence of death due to heart failure remains unaltered. Recent data suggest that biventricular (BV) pacing is useful in patients with heart failure. It is unclear, how many patients with an ICD indication may have an indication for BV pacing. Therefore all patients who received an ICD were analyzed for eligibility of BV pacing using the following criteria: NYHA class III or IV, QRS duration >120 ms, depressed LVEF. Three hundred and ninety consecutive patients received an ICD from June 1996 to March 2001. Underlying disease was ischemic heart disease in 66%. In the 390 patients the mean LVEF was 36+/-17%, 20% were in NYHA class III-IV and 16% were in NYHA class II with an LVEF <30%. Of these 140 patients, 79 had a QRS duration >120 ms. Thus, 79 (20%) patients were eligible for BV pacing in addition to ICD-therapy. Patients who received a BV pacemaker in addition to ICD-therapy had a superior survival, improved in NYHA class and showed a significantly lower hospitalization rate as compared to patients who received an ICD only. Screening for eligibility of BV pacing may be considered in patients with CHF scheduled for ICD implantation. 相似文献

Severe symptomatic tricuspid valve regurgitation due to permanent pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

OBJECTIVES: We report a series of patients with severe tricuspid valve regurgitation due to a permanent pacemaker (PPM) or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) lead. BACKGROUND: Severe tricuspid regurgitation caused by a PPM or ICD lead is an under-recognized but treatable etiology of severe right heart failure. METHODS: We reviewed the records of 41 patients who underwent tricuspid valve operation for severe tricuspid regurgitation caused by previously placed PPM or ICD leads. RESULTS: During surgery, severe tricuspid regurgitation was found to be caused by the PPM or ICD leads in all 41 patients. There was a perforation of the tricuspid valve leaflet by the PPM or ICD lead in 7 patients, lead entanglement in the tricuspid valve occurred in 4 patients, lead impingement of the tricuspid valve leaflets occurred in 16 patients, and lead adherence to the tricuspid valve occurred in 14 patients. The septal leaflet was most often perforated (6 of 7). In the preoperative evaluation, valve malfunction due to the PPM or ICD lead was diagnosed preoperatively in only 5 of 41 (12%) patients by transthoracic echocardiography. All patients underwent successful tricuspid valve operation (22 tricuspid valve replacement), with one perioperative death occurring. During follow-up (range, 1 to 99 months), there was one patient who died from left-sided heart failure and three patients died of other causes. The remaining patients showed improvement in signs and symptoms of heart failure. CONCLUSIONS: Damage to the tricuspid valve by PPM or ICD leads may result in severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation and may not be overtly visualized by echocardiography. This etiology should be considered when evaluating patients with severe right heart failure after PPM or ICD implantation. 相似文献

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD or defibrillator) therapy has revolutionized the fields of cardiology and electrophysiology. Hundreds of thousands of patients at risk for sudden cardiac death receive them each year. The devices are not much larger than a pacemaker, and they have full pacemaker capabilities in addition to being able to shock patients out of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. The Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial (MADIT) in 1996 was a landmark trial that showed for the first time a mortality benefit of ICD therapy over medications in patients at high risk for sudden death. Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial II, published in 2002, extended these results to all patients with ischemic heart failure with depressed heart function. Candidates for ICD implantation include most patients with an ejection fraction of <30%, especially those with coronary artery disease. More work needs to be done to define those patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathies who will benefit from ICDs and biventricular pacing for heart failure. 相似文献

Background
Little is known about the incidence and risk factors for progression to pacemaker dependency or the need for cardiac resynchronization in typical patients with an implanted defibrillator with regard to an alternative implantation of a subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD).Study design and methods
After retrospective analysis of 291 patients with first implantation of a transvenous single chamber ICD (VVI-ICD) from 2010–2016 and excluding those with an indication for pacemaker or lack of follow-up data, 121 patients were included and investigated with regard to the following endpoints: need for pacemaker stimulation, upgrade for cardiac resynchronization (CRT), and secondary occurrence and effectiveness of antitachycardia pacing (ATP). We compared the results with those of fundamental S?ICD studies and tried to determine risk factors on the basis of medical history and pre-implant data.Results
The study population and the rate of endpoints were significantly different to those of fundamental S?ICD studies. Within a 2.2-year follow-up, 14.9?% of the patients developed a need for pacemaker stimulation and 0.8?% the need for cardiac resynchronization. Excluding patients who at implantation were already at high risk for pacemaker dependency, 7.4?% remained with a reached endpoint. We identified atrial fibrillation and bundle-branch-block as risk factors. All episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) could be terminated by ATP in 9.9?% of the patients. They more often had ischemic heart disease and a secondary prophylactic indication for an ICD.Conclusion
The low rate of conversions from S?ICD to a transvenous ICD in case of pacemaker-dependency as stated in fundamental S?ICD studies should not be transferred to other typical collectives of ICD recipients. The latter group is at significantly higher risk for developing pacemaker-dependency.7.

Sudden cardiac death is responsible for about 50% of all deaths in heart failure. In studies on primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death, the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) has proven superior to antiarrhythmic drug therapy mainly in patients with coronary artery disease and reduced left ventricular function. Thus, in recent years the question arose whether prophylactic ICD treatment can reduce mortality as well in an unselected patient group with heart failure of any etiology. This is even more important for patients that are candidates for cardiac resynchronization therapy because, first, presence of an intraventricular conduction delay indicates an increased risk of sudden death and, second, the additional operative morbidity of ICD implantation is minimal compared to implant of a biventricular pacemaker. Recent studies have proven the benefit of conventional ICD treatment in patients with heart failure as well as the benefit of biventricular pacing in heart failure patients with ventricular conduction delay. In the present article, these studies and their influence on the system choice in cardiac resynchronization therapy are discussed. 相似文献

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis increase the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in heart failure (HF); however, national trends in utilization and outcomes of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) in this population remain unknown. We sought to evaluate the utilization and outcomes of ICD therapy in HF patients with CKD and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) using the National Inpatient Sample from 2009 to 2018. Hospitalizations with a discharge diagnosis of systolic HF and ICD implantation were identified and stratified by stages of kidney disease. A total of 281,219 systolic HF hospitalizations who underwent ICD implantation were included. A significant decrease in inpatient ICD implantation was observed over the past decade (3.7% in 2009 to 1.1% in 2018) regardless of renal impairment. In-hospital mortality was highest in ESRD, followed by CKD compared with patients with no CKD. Length of hospital stay and hospitalization costs were also significantly higher in patients with CKD and ESRD. The overall utilization of inpatient ICD implantation has decreased in systolic HF patients and inpatient ICD placement in CKD is associated with an increased risk of mortality and adverse clinical outcomes. This indicates that patients with renal impairment and HF represent a sicker cohort than the general HF population. 相似文献

Inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks continue to be a major source of distress to patients and a drain on the health care system. Expanding indications for ICD implantation include a large portion of patients with heart failure. This study investigated the relation between inappropriate ICD shocks and the severity of heart failure symptoms. Predictors of the time to first inappropriate ICD therapy were investigated in 230 consecutive patients implanted in 2001 and 2002. Thirty-two patients received 42 inappropriate shocks during a median follow-up of 501 days. Inappropriate shocks were due to atrial fibrillation (AF) or tachycardia (n = 31), other supraventricular tachycardias (n= 6), sinus tachycardia (n = 3), and noise or double counting (n = 2). The time to first inappropriate ICD shock was earliest in patients with advanced classes of heart failure (1- and 2-year shock-free survival of 79% and 70% for patients in New York Heart Association [NYHA] class III or IV vs 92% and 88% for patients in NYHA class I or II, respectively, p = 0.02). After correcting for age, gender, the presence of coronary artery disease, the presence of AF, the use of beta blockers, and indication for ICD implantation in a Cox regression model, advanced heart failure (NYHA class III or IV) remained an independent predictor of first inappropriate ICD shocks (hazard ratio 2.7, p = 0.01). Other predictors of the time to first inappropriate ICD shock included the presence of AF as the baseline rhythm at the time of the ICD implantation and the absence of coronary disease. In conclusion, inappropriate ICD shocks are predominantly due to AF. Advanced heart failure is an independent predictor of the time to first inappropriate ICD shocks. The effect of ICD programming and antiarrhythmic drug therapy on the incidence of inappropriate shocks deserves further investigation. 相似文献

Inadvertent placement of pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) leads in the left ventricle (LV) is a
rare but well-recognized complication of device implantation [1]. We report a case of inadvertent transarterial implantation of dual-chamber ICD leads; the ventricular lead positioned in
the LV and the atrial lead positioned in the aortic root. The tip of the atrial lead migrated across the aortic wall and captured
the epicardial surface of the left atrium. The diagnosis was made 5 years after the implantation procedure with no apparent
adverse events directly related to left heart lead placement. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Defibrillation testing (DT) at the end of the implantation of cardiac resynchronization pacemaker with a defibrillator (CRT-D) exposes heart failure (HF) patients to increased procedural risks. However, until now, delayed DT has not been assessed as a possible option in HF patients implanted with CRT-D. OBJECTIVE: Aim of the present study is to assess safety and feasibility of delayed DT in HF patients treated with CRT-D. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two hundred and eleven consecutive patients (mean age: 65 years, mean NYHA class 3.0, mean EF: 29.3%) underwent CRT-D implantation from October 1999 to December 2004. In the first 17 patients, DT was performed at the end of CRT-D implantation. In the other 194 consecutive patients, DT was performed at 2 months after CRT-D implantation. Outcome of DT, as well as "acute" LV lead dislodgment rate were evaluated in the latter group of 194 patients undergoing a delayed DT. Also, ICD function was assessed through device telemetry analysis at 2 months. RESULTS: At delayed DT, first shock was effective in 187 of 194 patients (96%), ineffective VF interruption at maximum energy occurred only in one patient (0.5%), and acute LV lead dislodgment was 1%. No ICD therapy failure occurred in the 2-month untested period. CONCLUSION: DT performed 2 months after CRT-D implantation is safe and feasible; this is possibly related to the improvement of clinical conditions and hemodynamic status as well as greater lead stability 2 months after CRT-D. 相似文献

The long-term efficacy of physiologic dual-chamber (DDD) pacing in the treatment of end-stage idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy was evaluated in a longitudinal study of up to 5 years in 17 patients. The considerable clinical improvement achieved after implantation of a pacemaker programmed for DDD pacing at an atrioventricular delay of 100 ms was maintained throughout the follow-up period or until death and was associated with a consistent decrease in New York Heart Association class and an increase in left ventricular ejection fraction. Cardiothoracic ratio, heart rate and echocardiographic dimensions progressively decreased, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures increased. Median survival time was 22 months. During follow-up, 4 patients received donor hearts, 9 had a sudden death at home without defined cause or after a thromboembolic event, and 1 died from adenocarcinoma. Three patients survived the follow-up. No patient needed rehospitalization owing to a worsening of heart failure after pacemaker implantation. An interruption of pacing in DDD mode for 2 to 4 hours was followed within the first months by a marked decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction and an increase in cardiothoracic ratio and echocardiographic dimensions, but this response consistently decreased during follow-up. The data indicate that DDD pacing can be recommended as a useful tool in the long-term treatment of end-stage idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, with progressive improvement in cardiac function and a reduction of the dilatation of the left ventricle. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with end-stage heart failure (HF). However, long-term results of CRT have not yet been validated. AIM: To assess the sustained benefit of CRT in patients with end-stage HF at long-term follow-up. In addition, predictors of response to CRT were analysed. METHODS: Twenty-eight patients with end-stage HF, NYHA class >or=III (>or=II in patients with indications for ICD and echocardiographic signs of ventricular mechanical systolic dyssynchrony), left ventricular ejection fraction <35%, QRS duration >120 ms and left bundle branch block morphology received a biventricular device (BiV). In 27 patients LV pacing was achieved via the coronary sinus tributaries and in 1 patient an endocardial LV lead was introduced transseptally. Ten patients received an ICD-CRT device. The control group consisted of 29 patients fulfilling the criteria for ICD-CRT implantation in whom the CRT system was not implanted for various reasons. At baseline, 3 months after implantation, and then every 6 months the following parameters were evaluated: NYHA class, quality of life (QoL) score, QRS duration on surface ECG, and 6-minute walking distance. The need for hospitalisation assessed one year before and one year after implantation was compared. Follow-up was obtained up to 2 years. RESULTS: The NYHA class and 6-minute walking test were significantly improved in the CRT group after 3 months and continued to improve gradually until 24 months of follow-up. The QoL improvement at 6 months was sustained over 2 years. Hospitalisation rate due to worsening of HF decreased. One-year and two-year survival were significantly better in the CRT group than in the control group (94 and 87 vs. 80 and 73% respectively). The only predictor of clinical improvement after CRT implantation was baseline NYHA class. CONCLUSION: Clinical improvements with CRT are progressive and sustained over 2 years of follow-up. 相似文献

Bariatric surgery may play a role in the management of morbidly obese patients with end-stage heart failure through increasing eligibility and improving the outcomes of destination therapies. We conducted a nationally representative, retrospective cohort study of patients with previous bariatric surgery undergoing either heart transplantation or left ventricular assist device implantation. Of 200 patients, < 6% experienced in-hospital mortality after destination therapy, comparable to that reported in the general population of heart recipients. Risk-adjusted outcomes differed minimally from those of obese patients undergoing destination therapy without previous bariatric surgery. This study provides important safety benchmarking data and demonstrates the feasibility of bariatric surgery as a potential bridge to left ventricular assist device implantation or heart transplantation in obese patients with end-stage heart failure. 相似文献

We report the case of a 66-year-old man with heart failure NYHA class IV treated with biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization. The patient was evaluated by real-time three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography before and 48 hours after pacemaker implantation. The use of three-dimensional echocardiography contributed to understanding the underlying mechanism involved in cardiac resynchronization therapy by demonstrating enhanced synchrony of myocardial segments, which resulted in the patient's clinical improvement. 相似文献

Biventricular pacing in patients with ICD: how many patients are possible candidates? 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

BACKGROUND: About 80 % of patients receiving an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) due to life-threatening episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) have structural heart disease. ICD implantation reduces the risk of sudden cardiac death to less than 2 %. However, the major obstacle in these patients is chronic heart failure (CHF). Biventricular stimulation (BIV) has shown its efficiency as an alternative therapy in drug refractory CHF. METHODS: According to the InSync registry, we predefined possible indications for BIV as follows: complete branch bundle block (> 120 ms), left-ventricular ejection fraction (EF) < 35 % and NYHA class > II. We evaluated the number of patients presenting this indication at time of implant and during follow-up (FU) at our ICD clinic. RESULTS: Between 1992 and 1998, 360 patients were provided with an ICD (mean age 64.6 +/- 5.4 yrs, mean EF 37 +/- 14 % at implant, 82 % of patients with organic heart disease). Mean FU was 34 +/- 21 months. During FU 46 patients (13 %) died, 15 of these (33 %) presenting criteria for BIV. 33 patients died of heart failure, there was 1 sudden death and 12 patients died for non-cardiac reasons. 35 % of the patients who died of heart failure had an indication for BIV. CONCLUSIONS: About 10 % of ICD patients had an indication for BIV at time of implant. Over a mean FU period of 34 months, 16% of all patients presented an indication for BIV. Patients with an indication for BIV had a higher mortality rate and more frequent atrial fibrillation compared to patients without. With this data and the good clinical results after BIV-ICD implantation, we consider the implantation of a BIV-ICD system in every patient with appropriate indications. 相似文献
