الوصف: Patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) often tolerate ventricular arrhythmias (VA). We aim to assess the frequency and outcomes of ICD therapies averted by ultraconservative ICD programming (UCP) in LVAD patients.This single center, retrospective cohort study included patients with LVADs and ICDs implanted from 2015 to 2019 that had UCP. The aim for UCP was to maximally delay VA treatments and maximize anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) prior to ICD shocks. VA events were reviewed after UCP and evaluated under prior conservative programming to assess for potentially averted events (that would have resulted in either ATP or defibrillation with prior programming).Fifty patients were included in the study with follow-up of median 16 ± 10.2 months after UCP. The median time from LVAD implantation to reprogramming was 7 days (IQR 5-9 days). Fourteen patients (28%) had potentially averted VA events that would have been treated with their prior ICD programming (82 total events, median two events per patient, IQR 1-10 events). Treated VA events occurred in 15 patients (30%). Eleven of the 14 patients with potentially averted VAs had treated events as well. Only one patient reported definitive symptoms of self-limited "dizziness" during a potentially averted event that did not result in hospitalization. No patients died of complications from or needed emergent care/hospitalization due a potentially averted VA.UCP in LVAD patients likely prevented unnecessary VA treatments in many patients with minimal reported symptoms during these potentially averted events. Prospective studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

الوصف: Background High adherence to remote monitoring (RM) in pacemaker (PM) patients improves outcomes; however, adherence remains suboptimal. Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) technology in newer-generation PMs enables communication directly with patient-owned smart devices using an app without a bedside console. Objective To evaluate the success rate of scheduled RM transmissions using the app compared to other RM methods. Methods The BlueSync Field Evaluation was a prospective, international cohort evaluation, measuring the success rate of scheduled RM transmissions using a BLE PM or cardiac resynchronization therapy PM coupled with the MyCareLink Heart app. App transmission success was compared to 3 historical “control” groups from the Medtronic de-identified CareLink database: (1) PM patients with manual communication using a wand with a bedside console (PM manual transmission), (2) PM patients with wireless automatic communication with the bedside console (PM wireless); (3) defibrillator patients with similar automatic communication (defibrillator wireless). Results Among 245 patients enrolled (age 64.8±15.6 years, 58.4% men), 953 transmissions were scheduled through 12 months, of which 902 (94.6%) were successfully completed. In comparison, transmission success rates were 56.3% for PM manual transmission patients, 77.0% for PM wireless patients, and 87.1% for defibrillator wireless patients. Transmission success with the app was superior across matched cohorts based on age, sex, and device type (single vs dual vs triple chamber). Conclusion The success rate of scheduled RM transmissions was higher among patients using the smart device app compared to patients using traditional RM using bedside consoles. This novel technology may improve patient engagement and adherence to RM.

الوصف: Background: Despite ACC/AHA guidelines indicating implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) as class I therapy for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death in patients with EF≤35%, ICD utilization rates in real world practice have been low. Objective: To determine the rate of ICD implantation at a tertiary care academic center and to assess the reasons for under-utilization of the same. Methods: Review of a prospectively collected database which included all patients diagnosed with an EF≤35% was performed to assess the rate of ICD implantation and mortality. Reasons for non-implantation of ICD were then assessed from detailed chart review. Results: A total of 707 patients (age 69.4 ± 14.1 years) with mean EF of 26±7% were analyzed. Only 28% (200/707) of patients had ICDs implanted. Mortality was lower in the group with ICD (25% vs 37%, p=0.004). When patients who either died or were lost to follow-up prior to 2005 were excluded, ICD utilization rate was still low at 37.6%. The most common reason for non-implantation of ICD was physicians not discussing this option with their patients. Patient refusal was the second most common reason. Conclusions: ICD Implantation rates for primary prevention of SCD in patients with EF≤35% is low. Physician and patient education should be addressed to improve the utilization rates.

الوصف: Introduction: Subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) implantation is a viable alternative to transvenous ICD implantation in patients without a pacing indication. The S-ICD lead is placed near the sternum. The safety of S-ICD implantation and risk for inappropriate shocks is uncertain in patients with prior sternotomy. Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included patients that had implantation of an S-ICD between February 2014 - May 2020. The 30-day complication rates and long-term risks of inappropriate shocks were compared between patients with and without prior sternotomy. Results: Ninety-eight patients (52 ± 15 years old, 43% men, BMI 29 ± 6, 72% primary prevention, 28% ischemic cardiomyopathy, median LVEF 30% (IQR 25-45%)) underwent S-ICD implantation, among whom 19 (19.4%) had a prior sternotomy. The median time between sternotomy and S-ICD implantation was 96 (IQR 4.1-306) months. The sternal coil was primarily implanted left of the sternum (n=17/19, 89%). A two-incision technique was used in 79% of patients with prior sternotomy vs. 65% without sternotomy (p=0.23). The 30-day complication rate was similar between those with and without prior sternotomy (n=1/19 vs. n=10/79, 5% vs. 13%, p=0.36). The only 30-day complication in patients with prior sternotomy was a hematoma without intervention. The 30-day complications in patients without prior sternotomy included: superficial site infection resolving with brief antibiotics (n=4), inappropriate shock (n=3), lead migration requiring revision (n=2), and a hematoma without intervention (n=1). Over a median follow-up of 17.1 (IQR 3.4-29.1) months, the frequency of inappropriate shocks was similar between patients with and without prior sternotomy (n=1/19 and n=6/79, 5% vs. 8%, p=0.72). The median time to inappropriate shock from S-ICD implantation was 1.1 (IQR 0.1-19.8) months. The mechanisms of inappropriate shocks were T-wave oversensing or other oversensing (n=5/7, 72%), air in the pocket (n=1/7, 14%), and atrial tachycardia (n=1/7, 14%). Conclusions: Implantation of S-ICD in patients with prior sternotomy was not associated with an increased risk of 30-day complications or inappropriate shocks. These outcomes need to be confirmed in larger, multicenter studies.

الوصف: Introduction: The Emory risk score has been developed to predict new pacemaker implantation in patients undergoing TAVR procedures. There is limited data on assessing risk of early versus late pacemaker implantation in these patients. Hypothesis: The Emory risk score is similar for patients with both early and late pacemaker implantation in TAVR patients. Methods: A single center observational study was performed at our tertiary care center. All patients who underwent pacemaker implantation after TAVR procedures were included. Patients were categorized as early or late if they had pacemaker implantation within the same admission versus implantation post discharge. Standard statistical tests were used for analysis with two-sided p value Results: A total of 97 patients were studied between January 2017 to April 2020. The mean age was 77.5 ± 7 years and females were 41.2%. At baseline patients with early implantation of pacemakers (n=66) had a higher proportion of underlying RBBB (45.2% vs 23.3%, p=0.43), higher valve size as well as a higher incidence of valve oversizing > 146% (43.9 % vs 19.4 %, p =0.23)when compared to patients with late pacemakers(n=31). There was no difference between patient characteristics, baseline comorbidities, pre procedural ECG parameters as well as use of beta blocking agents. Late pacemaker implantations were associated with a overall lower Emory Risk score (1.06±1.41 vs 1.70±1.35, p =0.037). Conclusions: The Emory Risk score is significantly different for early and late pacemaker implantation. Further studies are needed evaluate risk of late pacemaker implantation.
