Background: An accurate estimation of the risk life-threatening (LT) ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VTA) in patients with LMNA mutations is crucial to select candidates for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation. Methods: We included 839 adult mutations, including 660 from a French nationwide registry development sample, and 179 other countries, referred 5 tertiary centers cardiomyopathies, validation sample. LTVTA was defined as (1) sudden cardiac death or (2) cardioverter...
Background: Recurrences of atrial fibrillation (AF) after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) are mainly due to reconnection. However, a growing number patients have AF recurrences despite durable PVI. The optimal ablative strategy for these is unknown. We analyzed the impact current ablation strategies in large multicenter study. Methods: Patients undergoing redo and presenting PVI were included. freedom from arrhythmia vein-based, linear-based, electrogram-based, trigger-based compared....
Inappropriate shocks remain a highly challenging complication of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD). We examined whether automatic wireless remote monitoring (RM) ICD, by providing early notifications triggering events, lowers the incidence inappropriate shocks.We studied 433 patients randomly assigned to RM (n = 221; active group) versus ambulatory follow-up 212; control group). Patients in group were seen department once year, unless reported an event requiring earlier visit....
AimsTo describe obstetric/neonatal and cardiac outcomes for a cohort of women carrying implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) during pregnancy.
Studies assessing radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in arrhythmogenic right cardiomyopathy (ARVC) report VT recurrences, but have not evaluated the impact RFA on relevant clinical events during follow-up. We aimed to investigate outcomes a multicentric registry.This study included 49 patients with ARVC (46 definite diagnosis, 3 borderline diagnosis according revised Task Force Criteria) who underwent 92 procedures (83 endocardial, 9 combined endo-epicardial)...
The spectrum of inherited arrhythmogenic diseases (IADs) includes disorders without overt structural abnormalities (i.e. primary arrhythmia syndromes) and heart ventricular cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). aim this European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) survey was to evaluate current clinical practice adherence 2015 Society Cardiology Guidelines regarding the management patients with IADs. A 24-item centre-based online questionnaire presented EHRA Research Network Centres...
Despite increased use of remote monitoring (RM) to follow up implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) recipients, many patients still receive ICD shocks in the community and present emergency department. Our aim was identify best predictors impending shock delivery that can be measured with an most appropriate activities alert physicians during RM follow-up.All presenting our institution for shock, from November 2011 2014, were enrolled this prospective study. Patient characteristics,...
Management of antiplatelet therapy at the time device implantation remains controversial. This study aimed to assess risk bleeding complications in patients receiving clopidogrel cardiac surgery.We performed a retrospective case-control study. Between 2004 and 2010, 101 consecutive underwent surgery (pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation, generator replacement) our institution. Controls were 1:1 matched on age, sex, device, type procedure, number leads implanted,...
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are a standard means of sudden cardiac death prevention. Compared with ambulatory visits, remote monitoring (RM) ICD recipients has improved the quality health care and spared its resources. Few studies have addressed organization RM. We optimized validated our institutional model RM for recipients.This observational study 562 compared 2 periods consisting iterative, qualitative, quantitative (1) device diagnostic evaluations by nurses...
Abstract Background Despite scarce data, invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) is widely suggested as first-line ventilatory support in cardiogenic shock (CS) patients. We assessed the real-life use of different strategies CS and their influence on short mid-term prognosis. Methods FRENSHOCK was a prospective registry including 772 patients from 49 centers France. Patients were categorized into three groups according to supports during hospitalization: no group (NV), non-invasive alone (NIV),...
Background: Little is known about predictors of antitachycardia pacing (ATP) failure in implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) recipients. Distance between the stimulation site and ventricular tachycardia (VT) origin may critically affect ATP effectiveness. We hypothesized that be less effective ICD patients who had basal VT than those apical VT. Methods: reviewed data from 52 with sustained monomorphic left disease referred for implantation. was delivered exclusively at right apex....
Abstract OBJECTIVES Our goal was to provide a picture of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) activity in France between 2007 and 2016 based on the multicentric ASSIST-ICD registry. METHODS We retrospectively collected 136 variables including in-hospital data, follow-up survival rates adverse events from 671 LVAD recipients at 20 out 24 implant centres France. The average time 1.2 years (standard deviation: 1.4); total 807.5 patient-years. RESULTS included devices were HeartMate II®,...
AimsLead fractures in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) patients may cause inappropriate shocks (ISs). An early diagnosis is essential to prevent adverse clinical events. Implantable remote monitoring (RM) permits prompt detection of lead fracture. Limited data define the impact RM on ISs specifically related We sought compare number fracture with vs. without follow-up.
