Transvenous Lead Extraction . Introduction: As the population ages, the number of elderly patients with implantable cardiac devices referred for transvenous lead extraction will dramatically increase in Western countries. The safety and effectiveness of lead extraction in elderly patients has not been well evaluated. We report the safety and effectiveness of transvenous lead extraction in octogenarians. Methods and Results: From January 2005 to January 2011, we reviewed data from consecutive patients ≥ 80 years referred to our institutions for transvenous lead extraction because of cardiac device infection or lead malfunction. Clinical characteristics, procedural features, and periprocedural major and minor complications were compared between octogenarians and younger patients. Out of 849 patients undergoing lead extraction in the participating institutions during the study period, 150 (18%) patients were octogenarians (mean age 84 years; range 80–96; 64% males). A significantly higher percentage of octogenarians presented with chronic renal failure (55% vs 26%; P < 0.001), history of malignancy (22% vs 6%; P < 0.001), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (46% vs 19%; P < 0.001). Complete lead extraction rates were similar in the 2 age groups (97% in octogenarians vs 96% in patients <80 years; P = 0.39). Periprocedural death occurred in 2 (1.3%) patients ≥80 years and in 5 (0.72%) patients <80 years (P = 0.45 for comparison). No differences in terms of other periprocedural major and minor complications were found between the 2 age groups. Conclusion: Despite presenting with a significantly higher rate of comorbidities, transvenous lead extraction can be performed safely and successfully in octogenarians.

We report a case of a 63-year-old women with Chagas'disease and recurrent, syncopal VT treated by RF catheter ablation in whom endocardial application of RF energy was guided by nonsurgical epicardial mapping. The procedure was undertaken in the electrophysiology laboratory under deep anesthesia. VT was interrupted after 2.4 seconds of application and rendered noninducible afterwards. Two weeks after the procedure, a distinct morphology VT was induced by programmed ventricular stimulation, and the patient was started on amiodarone, remaining asymptomatic 12 months after the procedure. 相似文献

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new algorithm for automatic mode switching (AMS) from DDD-DDDR to DDIR, 26 patients, 16 females and 10 males, mean age 73 ± 6 years of age, affected by sinus node disease, chronotropic incompetence, and recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) received the Medtronic Them DR pacemaker. The device continuously calculates, in ms, the running average of the intrinsic atrial rate (MAR) and compares the current atrial interval (CAI) with the stored MAR. When the CAI is greater than the MAR it increases by 8 ms, and when the CAI is less than the MAR, it decreases by 23 ms. When MAR ± 330 ms (182 beats/mm), tachycardia is detected and AMS is activated. All patients had clinical evaluation, 12-lead ECG, Holter monitoring, and exercise testing after implantation and every 3 months for 1 year. The results were compared with the data stored in the pacemaker memory: AMS episodes number; the histogram of the last 14 episodes; and atrial electrogram recording. Twenty-two Holier recordings in 13 patients showed PAF and in all of them AMS occurred simultaneously. AMS lasted between 10 seconds and 20 hours, and MAR ranged from 195–400 beats/mm. No episode of PAF and no AMS were recorded in 39 Holter recordings in 22 patients. Appropriate AMS was confirmed in five patients by stored atrial electrogram and in nine by 12-lead ECG and pacemaker event markers. Mean atrial sensing was 2.13 ± 1.04 mV during PAF and 3,18 ± 1.46 mV during sinus rhythm. No PAF episode and no AMS were recorded during exercise testing. In conclusion, this new algorithm was very reliable, sensitive, and specific. 相似文献

Abstract. The endocrine-metabolic plasma pattern and the capacit of isolated perfused livers to produce triglcerides and ketone bodies have been studied in geneticall and diet-acquired obese rats (Zucker and Sprague-Dawle obese rats), and in control groups of the same strains.
An increased plasma insulin/glucagon molar ratio with hperinsulinaemia and hpoglucagonaemia was associated with hpertriglceridaemia, normal ketonaemia, elevated free fatt acids and normal or slight hperglcaemia in obese rats.
During oleate perfusion, the livers of Zucker and Sprague-Dawle obese rats showed an increase in triglceride output and liver triglceride content. The ketone bod output as well as the mitochondrial carnitine palmitol transferase activit were normal or slightl decreased.
In our rat population, a positive correlation between the insulin/glucagon molar ratio and triglceride output has been found. 相似文献

Background: Total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) is performed in patients having a single ventricle to allow the passive flow of systemic venous blood to the lungs. Interventional catheterization is needed to treat residual defects or complications. Aims: We discuss our results concerning 68 patients who had had TCPC from January 1995 to December 2010. Methods: Initial and follow‐up catheterization data were reviewed retrospectively. Mid ‐ term results were evaluated by means of angiography and/or CT scan. Results: Mean age at TCPC was 5 years (2.5–18); mean interval between TCPC and catheterization was 5.6 years (1.5–15). Sixty‐nine catheterizations were performed in 53 patients. Eleven patients (21%) had low venous pressure, did not display a right‐to‐left shunt, and did not need any intervention. Fifteen patients (28%) had low venous pressure and only needed the closure of the fenestration. The remaining 27 patients (51%) needed the following interventions: embolization of venous vessels prompting right‐to‐left shunt (n = 15), stenting or reconnection of pulmonary arteries (n = 5), stenting or recanalization of systemic veins (n = 11), other procedures (n = 5). In 3 patients the fenestration could not be closed due to high venous pressure. After the interventions oxygen saturation increased from 90.5%± 4.8% to 94.7%± 3.6% (P = 0.002). Conclusions: Our data show that 49% of patients with TCPC are in good condition late after surgery. However, half of these patients continue to need interventions generally aimed at suppressing stenoses at various levels of TCPC or at occluding vessels prompting right‐to‐left shunt. This population should enter a multicenter program aimed at identifying patients at risk. (J Interven Cardiol 2012;25:622–627) 相似文献

Fibroelastolytic papulosis of the neck: a report of 20 cases 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The clinical and histological features of the entites known as ‘white fibrous papulosis of the neck’ (WFPN) and ‘acquired elastolysis of the papillary dermis simulating pseudoxanthoma elasticum’ (PDE) are not clearly defined. This study was conducted to compare our experience of WFPN/PDE with those described in the literature. Twenty patients presented at our institution with papular eruptions involving the neck. The asymptomatic lesions, which ranged in colour from normal skin tones to yellowish, were isolated or coalescent. Microscopically, the papules showed elastolysis and fibrosis of the upper reticular and papillary dermis. A review of the literature shows similar characteristics in cases reported as WFPN and PDE. This study indicates that WFPN and PDE are variants of a single disorder that can be more precisely defined as ‘fibroelastolytic papulosis of the neck’ and which appears to be a manifestation of intrinsic skin ageing. 相似文献

The present study examines the potential electromagnetic interference effects induced by cellular telephones on ICDs. We developed ad hoc protocols to conduct both in vitro and in vivo trials on most of the implantable cardioverter defibrillators available on the international market. Trials were conducted with three cellular telephones: two GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and one TACS (Total Access Communication System). A human trunk simulator was used to carry out in vitro observations on six ICDs from five manufacturers. In vivo tests were conducted on 13 informed patients with eight different ICD models. During the trials in air, GSM telephones induced interference effects on 4 out of the 6 cardioverter defibrillators tested. Specifically, pulse inhibition, reprogramming, false ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia detections occurred, which would have entailed inappropriate therapy delivery had this been activated. Effects were circumscribed to the area closely surrounding the connectors. When the ICD was immersed in saline solution, no effects were observed. Three cases of just ventricular triggering with the interfering signal were observed in vivo. 相似文献

We describe a patient with complete intra-Hisian A-V block and narrow QRS who developed catheter-induced right bundle branch block during an electrophysiological study. Selective His bundle pacing was performed during complete intra-Hisian A-V block and right bundle branch block pattern; the distal His bundle pacing normalized the QRS complex, while a more proximal His bundle stimulation showed a right bundle branch block configuration with the persistence of the proximal intra-Hisian lesion responsible for the complete A-V block. These electrophysiological findings suggest that the catheter-induced right bundle branch block in our patient was due to a focal lesion in the distal part of the main His bundle. To our knowledge, this is the first report of documented multilevel lesions within the His bundle in man. 相似文献

Primary sarcoma of the pulmonary artery is a rare heart tumor. In the reported case, the clinical findings were nonspecific, and were characterized by progressive dyspnea, fever, and a systolic murmur in the pulmonary area. Echocardiographic examination showed an echogenic mass partially obstructing the pulmonary artery trunk, dilation of the right cardiac chambers, and a pressure overload pattern. Doppler and color Doppler demonstrated a high-velocity systolic flow jet in the pulmonary artery due to obstruction of the vessel by the tumor, as well as severe high-velocity tricuspid regurgitation. The patient died suddenly soon thereafter. The autopsy confirmed almost total occlusion of the pulmonary artery by a neoplastic mass. Histopathological diagnosis was primary vascular leiomyosarcoma of the pulmonary artery. In addition, a large tumor embolus had occluded the right pulmonary artery. Doppler echocardiography proved useful in noninvasively recognizing the sarcoma of the pulmonary artery, and explaining the clinical picture and hemodynamic derangements produced by this tumor. This could, in other patients, allow an early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention. 相似文献
