Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the leading cause of in athletes during sport. Whether obtained for screening or diagnostic purposes, an ECG increases ability to detect underlying cardiovascular conditions that may increase risk SCD. In most countries, there a shortage physician expertise interpretation athlete's ECG. A critical need exists education modern distinguishes normal physiological adaptations from abnormal findings suggestive pathology. On 13-14 February 2012, international group...
Electrocardiographic changes in athletes are common and usually reflect benign structural electrical remodelling of the heart as a physiological adaptation to regular sustained physical training (athlete's heart). The ability identify an abnormality on 12-lead ECG, suggestive underlying cardiac disease associated with sudden death (SCD), is based sound working knowledge normal ECG characteristics within athletic population. This document will assist physicians identifying patterns commonly...
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy in children and congenital heart disease patients is hampered by poor long-term lead survival. Lead extraction technically difficult carries substantial morbidity. We sought to determine the outcomes of ICD leads pediatric patients.The Pediatric Extractability Survival Evaluation (PLEASE) a 24-center international registry. with implantations from 2005 2010 were eligible. Study subjects comprised 878 (44% disease). Mean±SD age at...
Background— Although the vast majority of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is benign, a small subset patients, predominantly women, with bileaflet prolapse, complex ventricular ectopy (VE), and abnormal T waves comprise recently described MVP syndrome. We compared findings on electrophysiological study in syndrome patients without cardiac arrest to identify factors that may predispose malignant arrhythmia. Methods Results— Fourteen consecutive (n=13 women; median [limits], age at index ablation,...
Objectives We sought to examine the incidence and predictors of arrhythmias sudden cardiac death (SCD) after Fontan operation. Background Arrhythmias SCD have been reported following operations for congenital heart disease, but risk factors not well defined in patients a Methods reviewed records all who had operation from 1973 2012 (n = 1052) at our institution. A questionnaire was mailed were known be deceased initiation study. Late classified as bradyarrhythmias or tachyarrhythmias...
In view of the increasing complexity both cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) and patients in current era, practice guidelines, by necessity, have become increasingly specific. This document is an expert consensus statement that has been developed to update further delineate indications management CIEDs pediatric patients, defined as ≤21 years age, intended focus primarily on for setting specific disease categories. The also highlights variations between previously...
This study was performed to determine whether a preoperative hemodynamic evaluation with oxygen and inhaled nitric oxide identifies patients pulmonary hypertension who are appropriate candidates for corrective cardiac surgery or transplantation more accurately than an alone.At 10 institutions, 124 heart disease severe underwent catheterization operability. The ratio of systemic vascular resistance (Rp:Rs) determined at baseline while breathing approximately 21% 30% oxygen, in 100% 80 parts...
To determine the sequela of right ventricular pacing in children with congenital complete atrioventricular block.Pacing is a well-accepted therapy for patients block. The long-term this population has not been well described.We performed cohort study on all block who underwent pacemaker implantation at our institution from 1972 to 2004. Patients associated heart disease or dysfunction prior were excluded.A total 63 included study. median age was 6.5 years, an average follow-up 9.9 years....
Background: Because of venous occlusion, intracardiac shunting, previous surgery, or small size placement implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) leads may not be possible using traditional methods. The purpose this study was to evaluate and describe innovative methods placing ICD leads. Methods: records all patients undergoing implantation at our institution were reviewed identify with nontraditional lead placement. Indications for ICD, method coil placement, defibrillation thresholds,...
Background— Focal atrial tachycardia (FAT) is an uncommon cause of supraventricular in children. Incessant FAT can lead to tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy. There limited information regarding the clinical course and management FAT. This study characterizes current strategies for children including prevalence spontaneous resolution role catheter ablation. Methods Results— a retrospective chart review pediatric patients with managed between January 2000 November 2010 at 10 centers. were 249...
