Having several recently published reports on increased rate of cardiac perforation with some lead models as background, we assess the relation between perforations and leads used.All pacing defibrillation implantations 1 January 2007 31 March 2008 were analysed retrospectively. There 2247 implanted in 1419 patients aged 67.6 +/- 14.1, 1200 (53%) active 1047 (47%) passive fixation leads. Cardiac occurred eight (0.5%). The number does not differ significantly pacemaker implantable cardioverter...
ICD in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients. Introduction: Although implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICDs) are used sudden cardiac death (SCD) prevention high‐risk patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), long‐term results as well precise risk stratification discussed a limited number of reports. The aim the study was to assess incidence intervention HCM relation clinical profile. Methods and Results: We studied 104 consecutive implanted single center. mean age population...
The aim of the study was to assess clinical efficacy antazoline, a first-generation anti-histaminic agent, in rapid conversion paroxysmal non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) sinus rhythm patients without heart failure.This single center, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, superiority trial. We enrolled with an AF episode lasting less than 43 h, stable cardiopulmonary condition. Subjects who fulfilled selection criteria were randomly assigned receive intravenously either placebo...
The aim of this European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) prospective snapshot survey is to assess peri-procedural practices, implantation techniques, and short-term procedure-related complications associated with subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) or transvenous (TV-ICD), across tertiary electrophysiology centres. An internet-based electronic questionnaire concerning settings, routines, personnel, complications, patient outcomes was sent the centres routinely...
Young implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) recipients present a high rate of inappropriate interventions. Some them are caused by suboptimal pre-discharge programming the device. There conflicting data as regards antitachycardia pacing (ATP) effectiveness in children and young adults. We report our experience with ICD complications during 10 year follow-up.We analysed use ATP 63 patients aged 6-21 years. Antitachycardia (burst or ramp) was programmed ON 14 (22%), 49 (78%) had only...
Ensuring a haemodynamically effective cardiac rhythm is challenge in patients waiting for pacemaker reimplantation after transcutaneous lead extraction due to an infection of the implanted system.The authors report retrospective analysis temporary pacing with active fixation (AFTP) connected externalised transvenous (TLE) infection.AFTP was used 34 (12 women) aged from 38 88 years (mean 67.5 years). This represented 24.5% population undergoing TLE infective indications. In 32 cases,...
Background: The use of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICD) has been growing in Poland since 2014. Polish Registry S-ICD Implantations was run by the Heart Rhythm Section Cardiac Society between May 2020 and September 2022 to monitor implementation that therapy Poland. Aims: To investigate present state-of-the-art implantation Methods: Implanting centers reported clinical data patients undergoing implantations replacements, including age, sex, height, weight,...
Background: Antiarrhythmic treatment of patients with recurrent ventricular tachyarrhythmia, in whom catheter ablation and amiodarone were ineffective or contraindicated, is an unsolved clinical problem. Aim: The study aims to evaluate the efficacy tolerability mexiletine tachyarrhythmias and/or electrical storm events, standard strategies failed prevent tachyarrhythmia. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort analysis all treated for tachycardia fibrillation our institution between...
The increasing number of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) causes a rise in the absolute percentage individuals qualifying for transvenous lead extraction (TLE) due to infectious, vascular or failure related indications. As survival time prolongs, TLE procedures more and often concern electrodes long- -term functioning. Authors provide retrospective analysis effectiveness safety performed on leads implanted at least 10 years before extraction.Between 2008 2012 we...
Abstract Background Young implantable cardioverter defibrillator ( ICD ) recipients have a high rate of complications, some which seem to be underestimated. We report our clinical experience with therapy in children and young adults during 15 year follow up. Methods reviewed the database at present institution chose 73 consecutive patients who underwent implantation age 6–21 years. analyzed intervention rate, mortality, characteristics complications treatment options. Results A total 20/73...
The only subgroups of patients with heart failure and atrial fibrillation in which the efficacy cardiac resynchronization therapy has been scientifically proven are indications for right ventricular pacing after atrioventricular junction ablation. However it is unlikely that ablation would be a standard procedure majority concomitant due to irreversible character spontaneous sinus rhythm resumption occurs about 10% these patients. Pilot-CRAfT first randomized controlled trial evaluating...
Background: Over the last several years evolution of transvenous implantable cardioverter‑defibrillator (T‑ICD) system and introduction subcutaneous ICD (S‑ICD) have contributed to development sudden cardiac death (SCD) prevention in clinical practice. Aims: To report our experience with therapy children young adults during twenty‑ ‑two follow‑up. Methods: We reviewed database recipients choosing 80 consecutive patients (pts) implanted at age 6–21 1996–2018. analyzed rate appropriate (AT)...

Background: Still increasing life expectancy in patients with implanted devices and large number of leads more often induce the need to cure treatment complications or change especially cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). In order prevent further complications, possibility damaged redundant extraction should be taken into consideration.

Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is recommended in cases of local and systemic infections related to cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Additionally, TLE indicated the event damage or CIED malfunction.
